Eagles Edged by Golden Eagles in Game 1

Eagles record eight hits but fall short against nationally-ranked CUI.

IRVINE, Calif.---The Biola softball team dropped the first game of the day's doubleheader 4–2 to nationally-ranked No. 19 Concordia University Irvine at Golden Eagles Stadium. The game stayed close throughout, but one inning made the difference.

Biola threatened early, putting pressure on Concordia in the first inning. The Eagles recorded singles from Mikala Huskey and Kendall Nakano to put runners on first and third. Despite a great effort from Biola, Concordia managed to escape the threat.

Nakano finally put Biola on the board in the third inning, hitting a solo home run to give the Eagles a 1–0 lead.

Concordia responded in the bottom half of the inning. After a runner reached on an error and a hit put two on base, a CUI homer would clear the bases and give the Golden Eagles a 3–1 lead.

Concordia added another run in the fourth inning on a sacrifice fly and made it 4–1.

Biola cut into the lead in the sixth inning. With runners on base, Ariana Banos singled to center field to bring home BU's second run (4-2). 

Biola threatened again in the seventh when Huskey walked and moved into scoring position, but Concordia's closer finished the game without allowing a run.

Biola finished with eight hits compared to Concordia's five, with Nakano recording three hits including the home run. DJ Symons pitched all six innings for Biola, allowing four runs (one earned) with four strikeouts.
