Jacks Split Thursday's CCAA Opener with Gators

LOLETA, Calif. -- Cal Poly Humboldt opened CCAA play with a doubleheader split against San Francisco State, who received votes in this week's NFCA national poll. The Jacks secured a thrilling 5-4 victory in game one, powered by a three-run fourth inning and strong pitching. In the second game, Humboldt struggled to capitalize on scoring opportunities, falling 6-1 as the Gators took control early. 

"I'm proud of the way we competed in game one," said head coach Megan Corriea. "We have some work to do and need to capitalize against good teams when we get the opportunities, but look forward to another doubleheader tomorrow."

Jacks Open CCAA Play with Win Over San Francisco State

Cal Poly Humboldt Softball kicked off CCAA play in winning fashion, edging out San Francisco State 5-4 in the first game of Thursday's doubleheader at Bear River Complex.

The Jacks (10-4, 1-0 CCAA) struck early, plating two runs in the bottom of the first on a two-run double down the right field line by Alyssa Smokey that brought home Hailee Moore and Bella Garcia.

San Francisco State (11-4, 0-1 CCAA) responded with two runs in the second inning and added another in the third to take a 3-2 lead. However, Humboldt roared back in the bottom of the fourth with a three-run surge. Hailey Meisenbach tied the game with an RBI single before Marissa Brody delivered a clutch two-run single up the middle, giving the Jacks a 5-3 advantage.

The Gators trimmed the deficit to one in the fifth, but strong pitching down the stretch secured the victory for Humboldt. Gaige Garcia (5-2) earned the win after five innings of work, allowing five hits and three earned runs while striking out three. Riley Shopp came on in relief, tossing two shutout innings to pick up her first save of the season.

Offensively, Humboldt tallied nine hits, led by Garcia and Brody, who each recorded multi-hit performances. Smokey, Brody, and Meisenbach all drove in key runs to fuel the Jacks' offense.
