Softball Falls to Abington in Conference Opener

Reading, PA - The Penn State Berks Softball team dropped their first two conference games, falling to Penn St. Abington on Tuesday, Mar. 26. The Lions dropped game one 13-0 and then fell in game two by a score of 3-0.  

The Lions got off to a slow start, allowing Penn State Abington to race out to a 6-0 lead in the third inning. Berks tried to find some offensive rhythm in the bottom of the fourth inning when Naomi Fay reached base with a single past third base. The Lions could not capitalize, and they were unable to cut into the deficit. Abington plated a run in the fifth inning and six runs in the sixth inning to pull away and earn a 13-0 victory. 

Berks looked to bounce back in game two, getting a strong pitching performance from Mallory Duff. Duff pitched 7.0 innings, allowing three runs on five hits while striking out three Abington batters. Berks could not find their offensive groove, only recording three hits in the game. Abington plated a run in the first, second and fifth innings, holding on for the 3-0 victory.
