Immaculata, PA – College of Notre Dame of Maryland softball falls to Colonial States Athletic Conference (CSAC) opponent Immaculata on Friday afternoon. Immediately following the doubleheader against Immaculata the Gators played a make-up game against Centenary College.

Senior Ashley Taylor (Edgewood, MD/ Harford Tech) led the Gators offense with two hits, including a double, and one run scored. Juniors Cara Coraso and Megan Hartnett each recorded a hit in game one. Hartnett and Sam Smith drove in the Gators runs.

The Mighty Macs jumped out to an early in game one, putting up eleven runs over the first two innings of play. Notre Dame picked up their first run of the game in the top of the fourth inning off of a Hartnett single that scored Corsaro.

Taylor led off the fifth inning with a double and advanced to third on a ball put into play by Kirsten Smulovitz. Taylor was driven in by Smith during the very next at bat. Unfortunately, Notre Dame would be held scoreless for the rest of the innings. The Gators fell 15-2 to the Mighty Macs in game one.

In game two of the doubleheader Taylor recorded one of Notre Dame's three hits. Freshman Amber Loverjoy and sophomore Whitney Nixon had the other two hits for the Gators. The Mighty Macs strong pitching and excellent defense did not allow Notre Dame to score a run the entire game. Defensively Smith posted a team high seven putouts, Corsaro had three putouts and Taylor posted three assists.

In the final game of the afternoon the Gators took on the Cyclones of Centenary College. Notre Dame had previously squared off with the Cyclones earlier in the season, but were unable to complete the doubleheader due to weather conditions.

The Cyclones jumped out to an early five run lead and the Gators were never able to respond. The Gator batters extended their struggles into the Centenary match-up, posting one hit of the bat of Corsaro. Hartnett recorded six putouts for the Gators at first base in the 12-0 loss to the Cyclones.
