Softball loses three to CMU By Jason A. Dixon IHE BC NEWS Women's soflball coach leigh Ross-Shaw isn't overly concerned with her team's recent unin- spired play at home. "We've been playing good ball. The effort is there, the offense is there, the defense is there, I just think that we're lacking a little confidence," Ross-Shaw said. "It's been hard to pick ourselves up after losses, but this is a very tough team, and they'll bounce back." The 12-17-1 record the women's soflball learn has com- piled is no c&relalion of the tal- ent and character within the squad. But three consecutive losses to tin* Central Michigan Chippewas over the weekend made the record appear to fit the Falcons like a warm winter glove. Pitching was the name of the game in the first two contests, as CMU defeated J3G 3-1 and 6-1 in Saturdays doubleheader. In the first game, Chippewa Amber Puchalski. who was the 2001 Mid-American Conference Pitcher of the Year, had five strikeouts and held the Falcons to one hit, and her team took the two-run advantage into the fifth. The BG bats finally woke up in the sixth when Henee Roscmeier followed libby Voshell's double with one of her own. scoring pinch-runner Maria Murphy, which was the Falcons' lone run of the game. CMU (18-11, 7-1) added an insurance to provide the final score, and it was the victory, along with Puchalski s 13-strike- out performance that inspired another pitcher for the Chippewas, Jenni Rasmussen. Rasmussen gave up three hits, struck out four, and allowed one run in the second game to com- plete the doubleheader sweep. "We were really disappointed Nick Hurm BG News with the way we played on MISSING OUT: Junior Ray Barrel will not swim at the collegiate level anymore.
