Black Bear Softball Beats Bryant Bulldogs

North Smithfield, RI- Maine was matched up against Bryant University Saturday afternoon and won both of the games they played. The first game resulted in a Maine victory 12-7 and the second was a win 6-0.

Terren Hall from Bucksport, ME was the player of the game with four runs, five RBI, and a home run. In the top of the first inning
Ashley Waters (Amesbury, Mass.) got to second base on an error, later moving to third on an Alexis Souhlaris (Derry, N.H.) single. Terren Hall quickly walked, giving the Black Bears the bases loaded with two outs. Kristen Calvetti (Milford, N.H.) hit a one-run single that gave Maine an early 1-0 advantage. After this first inning, things just kept getting better for the Black Bears.

Souhlaris started on the mound for the Black Bears and carried a no-hitter into the fifth inning before Brynat hit a double into right field. She pitched seven shutout innings, allowed just four hits and struck out two. Souhlaris improves to 6-3 with the win.


Maine will travel to Baltimore, Md. next weekend for a double-header with UMBC on Saturday, March 28, starting at 1 p.m.
