San Diego State softball defeated CSU Northridge by a score of 7-4 on March 1 at the SDSU Softball Stadium to close out the San Diego Classic.
The Aztecs garnered three runs in the first four innings with junior outfielder Alexa Schultz driving in a run and sophomore designated player Summer Hargett smashing a two-run home run.
But in the top of the fifth inning, senior pitcher Marissa Moreno found herself with the bases loaded, prompting the entrance of junior pitcher Maggie Balint.
The Matadors then hit a grand slam, putting them up 4-3.
Head coach Kathy Van Wyk said she still had confidence in Balint’s abilities.
