Softball Splits on First Day of Fastpitch Dreams Classic

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - McDaniel College softball graduate student Katy Newton totaled six hits as the Green Terror split its first two games of the Fastpitch Dreams Spring Classic Monday.

The Green Terror (2-4) began the day with a 12-0 shutout over Keystone before falling to Ithaca in extra innings, 3-2.

Newton went 6-for-8 on the day with two runs scored, picking up three hits in each game.

McDaniel 12, Keystone 0

Newton was one of eight players to total at least one hit for McDaniel who jumped out to a four-run lead in the top of the first. Sophomore Bella Sylvester opened the scoring with an RBI-triple that scored Newton before Sylvester scored on a single up the middle by junior Makayla Calamita. Junior Paytyn Hazelton then hit a one-out, two-run double to push the Green Terror lead to 4-0.

After senior Mel Grant retired the Giants in order in the bottom of the inning, McDaniel added six more runs in the second, highlighted by a single by senior Colleen Camburn that led to four runs following a Keystone error.

Camburn scored her second run in the fourth on a passed ball before the Green Terror provided the final margin on an RBI-ground out by sophomore Olivia Dresser in the fifth.

Grant earned her first win of the season, limiting the Giants (1-1) to just two hits and one walk while striking out three.

Calamita reached base in all four plate appearances as was 3-for-3 with a walk, three runs and one RBI. Senior Evie Craig also had multiple hits, going 2-for-4 with two runs scored.

Ithaca 3, McDaniel 2 (8 innings)

Craig drove in both of the team's runs in game two with a two-run double in the top of the third that scored Newton and Calamita.

Led by senior Parker Murphy, McDaniel held the Bombers (3-1) scoreless until the bottom of the fifth when they tied the game with four-straight hits.

Both teams went hitless over the sixth and seventh and the game headed to extra-innings tied at 2-2.

Using the international tiebreaker, Dresser was placed on second to start the top of the eighth inning. However, after a pitch low in the dirt, she was tagged out trying to steal third. Back-to-back singles by Newton and Sylvester put runners on first and second with one out, but the Green Terror stranded both runners after Ithaca's Anna Cornell retired the the final two batters.

In the bottom of the eighth, the Bombers sacrificed Hudson Hassler over to third before she scored the game-winning run two batters later on a single to center by Kailey Collins.

Cornell scattered sixth hits over 8.0 innings and struck out 12 while Murphy limited Ithaca to just seven hits over 7.2 innings, striking out three and recording 17 ground ball outs.

McDaniel continues competition at the Fastpitch Dreams Spring Classic on Tuesday against The College of New Jersey and Mississippi University for Women beginning at 1 p.m.
