Hawks Sweep Hornets

The Santiago Canyon College Softball Team defeated the Fullerton College Hornet 5-3 today to complete the 3-game series sweep. The win sets up a first-place matchup on Wednesday for Santiago Canyon College and Santa Ana College. 

The Hawks saw themselves down 3-0 in the first inning when the Hornets were able to string together 3 runs on 4 hits. SCC immediately began closing the gap scoring a run in the bottom half of the inning.  In the second, the Hawks put up 3 runs to take the lead 4-3. Lindsey Marschall drove a single that scored Jazmyn Moetului, followed by a game tying, RBI triple from Adriana Martinez. Alyssa Yslas then scored Martinez on a fielder's choice.   

SCC added their final run in the fourth inning with an RBI single from Samantha Villanueva that allowed Martinez to score after reaching on a base hit.

Stella Turner recorded the complete game win improving to 22-5 overall on the season. It was a day of celebration as the Hawks honored the sophomores that will be graduating and transferring at the end of the spring season. We applaud each and every one of the student-athletes!

Next Up for the Hawks: SCC will travel to Santa Ana College on Wednesday for the final OEC game of the season.
