Baldwin Wallace's Strong Start Sinks Softball in Season Opener

BEREA, Ohio -- On the field for the first time in nearly a year, John Carroll University Softball roared to a hot start in the first inning with early runs. Unfortunately, Baldwin Wallace also came prepared with the offense.

In Monday's single-game season opener, the Yellow Jackets' early offensive outburst doomed the Blue Streaks, 10-2, in five innings.

The Blue Streaks drop to 0-1, with a chance at revenge tomorrow at 4:30 p.m. in Berea.

Gracie Bressoud opened the 2021 season on a positive note with a single on a bunt. After stealing second, the sophomore took third on a wild pitch and then scored on a Emma Gurley single up the middle. Gurley swiped second, took third on a wild pitch, and scored on a throw to second. The Blue Streaks led heading into the bottom of the third.

Baldwin Wallace quickly struck back with alacrity. The Yellow Jackets plated seven runs in the bottom of the first, taking full command of the ballgame. 

After a quiet second, Baldwin Wallace plated another run in the third, as Danielle Orendi calmed things down for JCU. The freshman notched her first collegiate strikeout in the bottom of the fourth.

In the fifth, DeBord entered the game at pitcher. The Yellow Jackets scored another two runs to end the contest at 10-2. 

Madison Eagle absorbed the loss for JCU, while BW's Nikki Camarati earned the win. 

Tuesday's game will be hosted by JCU at BW's turfed field. The game will have live video and live stats.
