Smethport's Phalon Earns a Bona Win

SPARTANBURG, S.C. - The St. Bonaventure softball team (1-1) plated three runs on three errors in its final half inning to earn a two-game split at the Upstate Classic.

Tied 3-3 in the bottom of the sixth, the Bonnies took advatage of Detroit miscues to steal the 6-3 win. Junior Jessenia Andujar, who notched the Bonnies' only hit in a 3-0 loss to Ohio to open the day, advanced to third on the innings first error and came around one batter later when Christine Watson reached on a wild pitch after striking out. Watson later scored from first on another outfield error, with freshman Grace Rooney plating the final marker on an infield boot.

Senior Diana Phalon of Smethport, Pa., (1-0) registered the win and Jen Sansano the three-out save (1) after Phalon fanned eight through six innings of work.

Sansano (0-1) allowed just one earned run in the loss to Ohio, but four Bona errors spoiled a four hit outing.

St. Bonaventure continues play today with games against Ohio and host S.C. Upstate.
