Win Finishes Cathedral City Classic
main image
CATHEDRAL -- Home runs by Jessica Fitu and Delaney Willard highlighted No. 25 BYU softball's 5-1 win against Ohio State in the Cougars' final game at the Cathedral City Classic on Saturday.
Junior Stacie Graham also went 3-for-3 and senior pitcher Paige Affleck allowed three hits with five strikeouts for her fourth win on the year.
Willard's third home run of the year came on a solo shot in the fourth, giving BYU a little extra breathing room by extending the Cougars' lead to 3-1. Fitu's homer, a two-run shot in the seventh, gave her five for the year.
The Buckeyes helped BYU on its first two runs, bringing in Cougar shortstop JC Clayton after an illegal pitch by Ohio State in the top of the first. BYU added another run in the second when freshman Katie Manuma scored from third after an errant throw by the Ohio State catcher.
Ohio State scored its lone run unearned in the third inning but never seriously threatened, advancing only one other runner as far as third the remainder of the game.
BYU will be back in action on Thursday, Mar. 3, taking on Houston and Long Beach State before taking on three other California squads over the next two days at a tournament in San Diego, Calif.
