FIRST PITCH
Thanks to the weather creating space in the CSUN schedule, the Matadors added LMU over the weekend and welcome the Lions to Matador Diamond Monday afternoon. Coverage on ESPN+ begins at 1 p.m.
ABOUT LMUÂ
Led by former CSUN head coach Tairia Flowers, the Lions last played on Mar. 18 due to weather when Fresno State defeated LMU 3-2 in Los Angeles. The Lions are 13-15.
Amanda Ta'amu leads the team in hitting at .305. She has smacked three home runs and driven in 14 runs this season. Morgan DeBard has a team-high five home runs while freshman Izzy Jamgotchian has a club-best 18 RBI.
Seven pitchers have seen time in the circle for LMU. Jenna Perez and Jessica Hubbard have each won five games. Perez is 10th in Division I in strikeouts (137), 12th in strikeouts per game (10.7), and 75th in strikeout-to-walk ratio (4.42).
CSUN and the Lions are playing for the 33rd time, with the Matadors leading the all-time series 24-8.
CSUN REACHES 1500
CSUN became the 13th NCAA Division I softball program to win 1,500 games on Apr. 1, 2023, when the Matadors defeated Long Beach State 7-1.
The Matadors rank 13th among all Division I programs in program victories and have a record of 1500-974-12 as of Apr. 1. The victory also clinched the first series win for CSUN against Long Beach State since 2015.
CARMAN'S HOT WEEKEND
Mikayla Carman recorded another hot Big West weekend against Long Beach State Mar. 31-Apr. 1.
Carman hit .625 against the Beach (5-8). She posted a .750 slugging percentage and a .700 on-base percentage in three games. The sophomore left fielder drove in four runs and scored once.
Carman walked twice, stole a base, and did not commit an error in 11 chances.
Carman now leads the team in hitting (.356), runs scored (18), and RBI (16). She is eighth in the Big West in batting.
