The Bowling Green State University softball team opened the 2019 season on Friday (Feb. 15), dropping a pair of games at the Upstate Classic in Spartanburg, S.C. Boston University broke open a tie game with a big sixth inning en route to a 9-3 win over the Falcons, and host USC Upstate doubled up the Brown and Orange, 4-2, in the day's second contest. Both games were held at Cyrill Stadium.
Junior Madi McCoy homered in her BGSU debut, while senior Kellie Natham hit a round-tripper in the nightcap. Sophomore Sammy Dees had a hit in each game, and freshman Emily Kepple had an RBI single in her first collegiate at-bat.
