Weather Costs CSUN Sunday Games in Santa Clara
3/12/2023 11:22:00 AM | Softball
SANTA CLARA—Mother Nature was the winner on Sunday as rain cost CSUN both of its softball games at the Silicon Valley Classic II.
GAME 1
CSUN led Utah State 3-0 in the fourth inning before rain halted the proceedings. The teams combined for one hit through the first three innings. Mikayla Carman led off the CSUN fourth with a single. Kaylee Escutia followed with a single, on which Carman took third. Kylie Galindo followed with a double that drove in both runners. Galindo took third on the throw. Kennedy Gustin ran for Galindo and scored on a Shaylan Whatman grounder with one out. Gizella Vargas Sandoval came up as a pinch-hitter.
The weather delay hit with the count 1-2 on Vargas Sandoval. Due to Utah State's travel, the game was halted, and due to the game not going five innings, the contest was ruled to be "no game." As a result, the statistics and outcome will not be counted. Alexis Martinez retired the nine batters she faced in the circle for the Matadors.
GAME 2
Rain canceled the second scheduled game between CSUN and Santa Clara.
UP NEXT
CSUN (8-12) plays at home for the first time on Tuesday when the Matadors host Colgate (6-12). Coverage begins at 10 a.m. on ESPN+.
