Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 Minneola, Fla. - The Georgian Court University softball squad wrapped up its eight-day,12-game spring training trek to the Sunshine State Saturday with regional losses to American International College (4-1) and Slippery Rock University (11-2, 5 inn.).

GAME ONE

A pair of runs in the first inning, followed by two more in the home half of the sixth, provided AIC plenty of cushion as the Yellow Jackets (1-2) secured their first triumph of the 2017 campaign. The Lions plated its lone tally in the top of the sixth, courtesy of a solo Minneola missile to left off the bat of GCU backstop, Samantha Reilly.

Alyssa Camargo (Sr.-Covina, Calif.) proved victorious in the circle for AIC, yielding just the lone run on four hits and a walk. The senior slinger also struck out five batters. Jessica O'Neil (1-5) went the distance for the Lions, permitting four runs (2 ER) on seven hits (3 K).

Reilly topped Georgian Court with a 2-for-3  offensive offering, which included a double and the sophomore's second long ball of the week. Kelly Hardiman (1-for-3) and Cassandra Varvaro (1-for-3) provided the Lions' remaining knocks.

GAME TWO

An eight-run, fifth-inning outburst turned an otherwise close 3-2 affair into an 11-2 blowout as The Rock flattened the Lions to improve to 2-5 on the year. GCU (1-11) owned a 2-1 advantage after the initial inning of action before Slippery Rock took the lead for good with a two-spot in the top of the third.

Georgian Court made matters very difficult for itself as seven fielding blunders by the Lions provided the victors seven unearned runs.

Carly DeRose (Sr.-North Lima, Ohio) garnered the win for Slippery Rock, permitting two runs (1 ER) on four hits and a walk (1 K) in 5.0 innings pitched. Marissa Trezza drops to 0-3 for GCU after allowing 10 runs (3 ER) on nine hits and a walk (3 K) over four frames.

Reilly was again the star of the show for GCU, blasting two doubles in the outing.

With Monday (@ Adelphi University) and Tuesday's (@University of New Haven) road contests canceled due to the impending snow storm, the Lions are scheduled to next play at home on Friday vs. Lock Haven University at 2:00 p.m.
