WESTERVILLE, OHIO -- The Baldwin-Wallace College softball team drops its Ohio Athletic Conference opening doubleheader against Otterbein University today (Sunday, March 25, 2012) by final scores of 10-2 in five innings and 4-3 in seven innings. This marked the OAC opener for both teams.
With the losses, the Yellow Jackets fell to 8-6 overall and 0-2 in the OAC. The Cardinals improved to 10-4 overall and 2-0 in the OAC.
In game one, B-W jumped out to an early lead when sophomore first baseman Kaity Mullen (Avon Lake) hit a two-run home run over the left field fence in the top of the second inning. Sophomore third baseman Lauren Feciuch (Kent/Field) scored on the homerun after she reached on a double to left field. The homerun was the first of the season and the fifth career shot for Mullen.
Otterbein would score four runs in the bottom of the third and five in the bottom of the fourth as Casey Clarridge hit a homerun in each inning and had six runs batted-in. The Cardinals would close out the game in the bottom of the fifth inning as they would plate the decisive 10th run on a wild pitch.
Offensively, the Yellow Jackets were led by Feciuch, freshman shortstop Brittany Lightel (Tallmadge) and Mullen as each recorded one of the three B-W hits.
