Softball Blanks Columbia in Doubleheader

Meanwhile, Brown kept the Lions at bay and allowed just one hit in the contest.

Both teams struggled offensively in the middle of the game, failing to score in the third, fourth, or fifth, but Harvard regained its footing in the sixth, plating another three runners to force the game to an early end by the eight-run rule.

Ferri delivered when the bases were loaded with an RBI to bring one in. Freshman pinch hitter Emily Gusse struck next, driving in the final two runs of the contest with a double to right field.

In the Crimson victory, Brown earned her 10th win of the season, while Regan recorded a game-high three hits. Also contributing for the Crimson were the rookies: Big plays from Gusse and Lantz helped secure the win.

“[The freshmen] bring so much energy in the dugout...and they are such a force on the field,” Alexander said. “They’re coming in at clutch situations and getting it done.”
