Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 FRESNO, Calif. – The CSU Bakersfield softball team continued at the Bulldog Classic on Saturday with the `Runners playing UC Davis first and then Pacific in game two. 
 
Summer Evans would get the nod to start on the mound for the `Runners in game one.  Evans would allow two first inning runs, one unearned and UCD took a 2-0 lead.  CSUB would respond and it was that girl again.  Senior Julea Cavazos continues to star for the 'Runners, this time a two out RBI double to score sophomore Jocelyn Betancourt to cut the lead in half. 
 
Roadrunner junior Chris Hipa would give CSUB the lead in the bottom of the third with her first homerun of the year, a two-run shot and the `Runners led 3-2 after three.  But UC Davis would answer with a run in the fifth to tie it and would add on four in the sixth to defeat CSUB 7-3.  'Runners freshman Daryn Hitzel would come in from the pen and toss 1 1/3 of no hit ball in the loss.
 
Evans would allow seven runs, five of them earned in the loss and drops to 0-6 on the season.  CSUB falls to 0-8 heading into their second game of the day.
 
The `Runners would turn to redshirt freshman Kaycee Olson in game two against Pacific.  CSUB was looking for revenge after dropping the opener of the Bulldog Classic yesterday to Pacific 8-3, but the Tigers were just too much for the `Runners for a second consecutive day and would get the 6-0 win.
 
Olson would allow two runs in 1 2/3 on four hits before giving way to Hitzel.  Hitzel would pitch well in her second appearance out the pen on the day and the freshman would toss 3 1/3 innings and allowed two runs on six hits.  Evans would finish the game for the 'Runners by pitching the sixth and the senior allowed two runs on four hits.
 
Cavazos stays locked in and goes 2-4 in game two and the `Runners had a total of four hits in the game.  The `Runners fall to 0-9 and will finish up the Bulldog Classic against St. Mary's Sunday, Feb. 18 with first pitch scheduled for 12 p.m.
 
After the weekend, the 'Runners will travel to Moraga, Calif., for a three-game set at St. Mary's, so these two teams will get a little preview of each other on Sunday.
