main image
HONOLULU -- BYU (1-3) softball got its first win of the season in a 2-1 victory over the University of Alabama at Birmingham on Saturday at the Hawai`i Paradise Classic tournament.
The game remained scoreless until BYU put the first two-runs on the board in the top of the fourth inning.
Junior UVSC transfer Crystal Young got the offense started with a single through the left side, matched by another single down the right field line from junior Lauren Watson. Freshman Jodi Norton hit a sacrifice fly into left field to score Gerhauser (who pinch ran for Young) and take the 1-0 lead.
Sophomore Hawaiian Ashlyn Russell kept things going with a single to shortstop, which advanced Watson to second. Senior Kate Walker came through with a sacrifice hit to make the second out of the inning, but she advanced Russell to second and Watson to third. Freshman Paige Paramore's single through the right side scored Watson for the second run of the inning (2-1). The inning ended on a fly to right field with two runners left on base.
The Cougars held UAB runless until the bottom of the fifth inning when UAB's Beth Mullins singled up the middle to bring in Sara Christophel (2-1).
Junior Ariel Capra (1-1) picked up her first win on the mound in 4.2 innings, and junior teammate Niki Andersen recorded her first save of the season. Blazers pitcher Tara Higashino (0-2) got the loss.
BYU will play its final game of the five-game tournament against St. Mary's on Saturday at 7 p.m. (HT), 10 p.m. (MT).
