Cameron loses pitching duel with TSU; wins three game series 2-1

LAWTON, Okla. – The Aggie softball team fell in the third game of their series with Tarleton State on Saturday, falling 4-2, but still winning the series 2-1, after sweeping a doubleheader on Friday.

Cameron is now 21-6 on the season with a 10-2 Lone Star Conference mark, while the TexAnns are now 17-12 with a 6-6 league record.

The game was a pitcher's duel through the first six innings, with Bethany Hines giving up just one run in the top of the fourth on a TSU homer until the seventh.
Both offenses struck for runs in the seventh inning, with the TexAnns getting a run on a double with two outs and then two more crossed the plate on a dropped fly ball, giving them a 4-0 lead heading into the final half inning.

In the bottom of the seventh, the Aggies were able to load the bases on a pair of leadoff walks and an infield single by Kaylyn Smith. Brenna Busby then drove them in on a hot grounder that ricochet off the shortstops glove, cutting the TSU lead in half.  Paige Daino then walked to reload the bases with still no outs. Breezy McComas then flew out on a 3-2 count, and then Callie Busby grounded into a double play for the second and third outs, ending the game 4-2 in favor of Tarleton State.

Hines received her first loss since February 4, going all seven innings, while giving up two earned runs on seven hits with two strikeouts. She is now 15-3 on the season.

CU's offense managed just five hits with K. Smith, B. Busby, C. Busby, Hines, and Annie Combs each recording a hit. B. Busby drove in both of the Aggies runs, while Daino drew three walks.

Jordan Withrow got the win for Tarleton, while Haley Freyaman got her fourth save of the season. Maddie Quintanar and Nyka Wood each had a pair of hits, with Meghan Wrinkle and Alyssa Ringhausen each tallying a run scored and an RBI.  

The Aggies will have a pair of series coming up this next week, taking on the University of Science and Arts in a doubleheader on Wednesday, March 15 and then they will face Midwestern State in a three game conference series, March 17-18.
