Softball Ends Opening Weekend With 3-2 Record


MOBILE, Ala.—McNeese softball ended their opening weekend at the Sand Dollar Classic with a 3-2 record after a 4-0 loss to third ranked Alabama Sunday. The Cowgirls' other loss, a 5-1 decision came against 23rd ranked South Alabama on Saturday.
 
The Cowgirls picked up seven hits against the Tide and were led with two hits apiece coming from Lauren Langner and Emily Vincent.  
 
Sophomore Rachel Smith took the loss, falling to 1-1 on the season.  Smith gave up seven hits, walked three and fanned four batters.  Jamie Allred relieved Smith in the sixth and faced three batters.
 
Alabama took a 3-0 lead off three hits in the second including doubles by Leona Lafayele and Demi Turner.  Turner knocked in two of the three runs with a double down the right field line.
 
The Cowgirls had a chance to score in the third with one out and the bases loaded but Taylor Groee grounded out to second and Morgan Catron popped up to first to end the Cowgirl threat.
 
McNeese missed another scoring opportunity in the fifth after leaving runners stranded on second and third with one out. The Cowgirls started the inning off with back-to-back singles by Langner and Vincent.
 
Alabama added a run in the fifth to take a 4-0 lead. Turner led the inning off with a bunt single and advanced all the way to third on a Cowgirl error. A Danielle Richard single to left scored Turner.
