Lake Wales, FL - Coming off a 1 and 1 day, the Calumet College Softball team took on Warner University. The Crimson Wave played a close first game, losing 3-2, but made the late comeback in game two to win 3-2 for the first time in 6 years.
Game One: Warner 3, CCSJ 2
Kenzie Lanman took to the mound for the Wave and went a full 6 innings for the Crimson Wave. Lanman and the CCSJ defense held The Royals from scoring until the 4th inning as Warner scored the first run of the game. In the bottom of the 5th inning, Warner scored another two runs to take a 3-0 lead over the Wave.
In a last-ditch effort, the Crimson Wave kicked off the top of the 7th inning with a leadoff double from Adelina Staden. Alex Navarro followed with a double to center field, scoring Geralyn Barton from 2nd, and then stealing 3rd base. Sydney Muph and Tiffanie Brieno were both hit by pitches to give the Wave bases loaded with Kayla Kirmani at the plate. Kirmani hit a deep fly ball into foul left territory that was caught but Navarro was able to head home and bring the score to 3-2. Roxanne Ines flew out to left field ending CCSJ's final effort to extend the game.
Staden was a perfect 3-for-3 at the plate with two doubles for the Wave while Navarro was 1-for-3 with an RBI and stolen base.
