Softball Opens with Two Tough Losses at D-II TAMUI

Schreiner opened its 2008 season with two close losses at Texas A&M International, an NCAA Division II program.  The Mountaineers rallied to tie the score of the opening game at 2-2 in the sixth inning when junior Lyndsie Travis hit her first home run of the year.  TAMUI answered in the seventh with the game-deciding run and a 3-2 win.

In the nightcap, it was a bit of deja vu.  The Mountaineers (0-2) trailed early, and then rallied to tie the score at 4-4.  Texas A&M International scored three runs in the sixth inning and went on to record a 7-4 win.

Freshman Becca Hay threw a solid game in the opener - her first collegiate game.  She gave up only four hits in 6-2/3 innings of work, and only two earned runs against a scholarship program.  Despite the fine outing, she picked up the loss.

Travis had two of SU's 9 hits on the day.  Patsy Toman also pitched her first game at Schreiner in the nightcap, giving up six runs on 13 hits.  She held Texas A&M International in check for four innings but the home team broke through for five runs in the final two innings - four earned.
