CLERMONT, FL - The RIT softball team (3-7) wrapped up play at the Dot Richardson Spring Games at the National Training Center with a pair of one-run wins on Wednesday. RIT defeated Carleton College (5-8) by a score of 4-3, then took down Oberlin College (1-8), 2-1.

In the opener against Carleton, RIT trailed 3-0 in the fifth and 3-2 heading into the bottom of the seventh inning.

Amanda Cook (Royal Palm Beach, FL/Suncoast) would double to center field, scoring Martin to tie the game at 3-3. Sarah Wolcott (Cohocton, NY/Wayland-Cohocton) would single home Cook for the game-winning run.

Wolcott would go 2-for-4 with a pair of RBIs, while Alexandra Lunderman was 2-for-3. Tori Blaker (Corning, NY/Corning-Painted Post West) and Farner would score runs. On the mound, Sierra Valentine (Rochester, NY/Greece Athena) scattered 14 hits to allow three runs in the complete game win.

Against Oberlin, Lauren Mahar (Rotterdam, NY/Schalmont) was sensational on the mound, allowing just three hits and one run while striking out six batters for her second win.
