Softball Sweeps MCLA
Worcester, MA – The Worcester State College softball team got their first Massachusetts State College Athletic Conference wins of their year pulling off a pair of come-from-behind victories over the visiting Trailblazers of MCLA. The wins improve Worcester State to 4-17 (2-4 MASCAC) while MCLA falls to 2-16 (2-4 MASCAC).
In game 1, MCLA led, 6-4, going into the bottom of the seventh inning when Lancers scored three runs to pull out the, 7-6, win. In the seventh, senior Amanda Michaud (Somerset, MA) rapped a pinch hit single to open the frame. She was pinch run for by Ashley Loomer (Pepperell, MA) who was moved to second on a ground out. Ashley Nye (Marion, MA) singled moving Loomer over to third base. Michelle Frazier (Tewksbury, MA) then hit a two-run single to tie the game at, 6-6. Senior Sara Chamberlain (Hudson, MA) then ended the game with an RBI single scoring Frazier with the game winning run.

MCLA infielder Carissa Everett (W. Bridgewater, MA) was 3-for 4 with a pair of runs scored in the loss for the Trailblazers.
In game 2, the Lancers once again performed late inning heroics as they scored three runs in the bottom of the seventh inning to overcome a, 3-1, deficit to complete the sweep of the twin bill. MCLA posted a single run in the second inning when Deanna Trumble (Adams, MA) singled home Everett who tripled earlier in the inning.

Worcester State got on the board in the bottom of the fourth inning on a sacrifice fly by sophomore Veronica Clark (Worcester, MA).
