Game Two Box Score

In their regular season opener the Cedar Crest College Softball traveled to the Bronx to take on non-conference opponent Lehman College.

Alexis Baxter (Clifton Springs, NY/Phelps-Clifton Springs) would toe the rubber for the Falcons in Game 1, going the distance for the Falcons while giving up just three earned runs.  The difference maker for the Falcons in game one would be six errors commited by the Falcons defense.  

Offensively, the Falcons would have no problem scoring runs, as they would plate six runs in the first three innings and five in the last two including four in the seventh.  Shannon Wenner (Drums, PA/MMI Preparatory) led the Falcons in game one finishing 3 for 5 with three RBI's and three runs scored.  Wenner would also connect with her first home run of the year, a 3-run homer in the top of the second.  Baxter, Ericka Clayton (Zionsville, PA/Allentown Central Catholic HS) and Javara Troupe (Tampa, FL/Tampa Bay Tech) would all finish with multiple hits.

The Falcons would drop game one 12-11.

Sophomore Ericka Clayton (Zionsville, PA/Allentown Central Catholic HS) would start game two for the Falcons, but would be chased off after just one inning giving up three runs and walking three.  Game one starter Alexis Baxter (Clifton Springs, NY/Phelps-Clifton Springs) would pitch in relief the final 4 1/3 innings, giving up 11 runs, but only two of them were earned.

The Falcons bats would once again have no problem scoring early, scoring three runs in the first two innings.  Javara Troupe (Tampa, FL/Tampa Bay Tech), Alexis Baxter (Clifton Springs, NY/Phelps-Clifton Springs) and Rakia Otoo (Bronx, NY/Manhattan Center for Science & Math) all finished with multiple hits, while Shannon Wenner (Drums, PA/MMI Preparatory), Kali Jones (Pottsville, PA/Pottsville Area HS), Chelsea Klausfelder (Red Hill, PA/Upper Perkiomen High School) and Tammy Touhsaent (Mertztown, PA/Kutztown Area) all finished with RBI's.

The Falcons would drop game two 14-6.
