CLERMONT, Fla. - The Belhaven Softball team ended their trip to The Spring Games tournament in Florida with a Tuesday split as they fell in a tight game against Plymouth State University 1-0 before taking down Carroll University 6-2 to close out the week.

GAME ONE

The Blazers found themselves in a pitcher's duel against Plymouth State in the first game of the final day in Florida. Natalie Parker was stout in the circle holding Plymouth to just a pair of hits on the day but those two hits would prove to be enough as Plymouth knocked off the Blazers 1-0. 

Belhaven put together six hits in the contest coming from six different hitters but were not able to string together enough offense on the day to knockoff Plymouth State.

The Blazers got the offense going early after Carroll took the lead in the top half of the 1st inning. Belhaven responded in the bottom of the frame with two runs as Allie Gordon delivered a sacrifice fly to tie the game ahead of a solo home run from Carruth to put Belhaven in front.
