LAKEWOOD, CA -- The Long Beach State softball team upset the No. 2-ranked UCLA Bruins, 1-0, at Mayfair Park on Wednesday night. Junior transfer Michelle Turner pitched a five-hit shutout with six strikeouts over seven innings of work for her second win of the season.
Long Beach State evened its record to 3-3, while UCLA suffered its first loss of the season to fall to 5-1. UCLA had outscored its opponents 54-7 prior to Wednesday night¹s contest. It was the first win over UCLA since the 2002 season.
Junior Kourtnee Gervasi provided the game-winning RBI in the bottom of the fourth inning when her single thru the right side plated Turner, who reached base on a throwing error by UCLA shortstop, Jodie Legaspi.
Turner allowed just one hit after the fourth inning. UCLA¹s Anjelica Selden suffered the loss. She allowed one run, unearned, on one hit with 13 strikeouts in six innings of work.
The 49ers travel to Santa Barbara to compete in the 2006 Commercial Capital Classic, hosted by UC Santa Barbara, Feb. 17-19. |
