Softball Set For Doubleheader Against Puget Sound

ELLENSBURG, Wash. – The Central Washington University softball team takes on the University of Puget Sound in a non-conference doubleheader.
 
GAME INFORMATION
Saturday, February 15
vs. Univ. of Puget Sound
Auburn Mountain View High School
Auburn, Wash.
12:00 p.m. & 2:00 p.m.
 
QUOTABLE
"Our focus is on continuing to improve and applying what we are working on," CWU Head Coach Alison Mitchell said.  "I am expecting the pitchers to continue to work trust their spins and hit their spots and the hitters to work to contact with their lower half. Defensively we have had our ups and downs, so the more in game reps we can get the better. We look forward to any chance we get to get on the field and compete."
 
SCOUTING THE UNIVERSITY OF PUGET SOUND
The Loggers are 0-3 on the season.  They have allowed at least five runs in each of the losses.  They were ahead of Pomona-Pitzer in game two of their doubleheader, but the game was halted due to inclement weather.

Marissa Oda has the only homerun for the Loggers.  She is 2-for-6 on the season. 
 
In the circle, Savan Smith has tossed 7.1 innings with a record of 0-2.  Smith has allowed 13 hits, nine runs, seven earned, and holds an earned run average of 6.68. She has struck out a pair of hitters and walked six.
 
LAST TIME OUT
Central Washington returned from a long road trip with a record of 5-7 after the Desert Stinger in Las Vegas and the Courtyard Classic in St. George, Utah.
 
Sydney Brown leads the Wildcats with an average of .320.  She clubbed three homeruns during the Wildcats' 12-game road trip, driving in five runs.  Maddy Zerr and Katie Cunningham have also driven in five runs apiece.  Leading the RBI category is Gracee Dwyer with nine.  She has a pair of homeruns on the season.  Paige Liikala sits second on the CWU roster with an average of .316.  She has one homerun, three runs batted in, and an on-base percentage of .480.
