TUCSON, Ariz. - The Oregon State softball team fell, 7-0, to No. 9 Arizona to open its first conference road series, Friday night.
"We hit well tonight," said head coach Laura Berg. "Unfortunately, we didn't get the big hit and left too many runners on base."
The Beavers started hitting the ball right away as sophomore Maia Rader opened with a single up the right side of the field. Sophomore Frankie Hammoude followed with another one-bagger, advancing Rader to third.
In the bottom of the first, the leadoff batter for the Wildcats also opened with a single before junior pitcher Mariah Mazon struck out the second batter for the first Beaver out of the game.
