WINTER HAVEN, Fla. – The Lock Haven University softball team notched a 4-2 win over Wayne State, but dropped its final game of the PFX Tournament to Hillsdale College, 3-1. LHU wraps up their spring break trip to Winter Haven, Florida at 5-2 and moved the Bald Eagles season record to 6-5.
 
Game 1: W, Lock Haven 4 – Wayne State 2
 
LHU got things going in the top of the first as Delaney Good (Mifflinburg, Pa./Mifflinburg) and Bella Schmitt (Dillsburg, Pa./Northern York) each scored on a Warriors' wild pitch. Summer Peters (Lancaster, Pa./Lampeter-Strasburg) made the Lock Haven lead 3-0 when she took advantage of Riley McClellan (Granville Summit, Pa./Troy) stealing second base to come home for the score.
 
Sydney Arrigale (Blackwood, N.J./Highland Regional) notched the fourth and final run to give LHU some insurance in the sixth inning. The sophomore hit a sacrifice fly to center field, which scored R. McClellan and gave LHU a 4-2 lead.
 
Madison Waltman (Turbotville, Pa./Warrior Run) got another win for Lock Haven and pitched all seven innings while allowing just two earned runs. Waltman struck out two and allowed just six hits and improved to 5-1 on the season.
 
Game 2: L, Hillsdale 3 – Lock Haven 1
 
In what was a close defensive contest, the Bald Eagles took a 1-0 lead in the third inning when Arrigale doubled to open the inning and later scored on a Hillsdale error. That turned out to be the lone run of the day for LHU, as Hillsdale pitcher Joni Russell went all seven innings and scattered five hits.
 
Good and Schmitt both picked up two hits each for LHU, and Arrigale notched a base hit of her own.
 
LHU held a slender advantage going into the seventh inning, but Hillsdale plated three in the top half of the inning and closed out the 3-1 win in the bottom of the seventh.
 
Kinley Gioglio (Stroudsburg, Pa./Stroudsburg) got the start and went six strong innings with two earned runs allowed.
