The Long Beach
State softball team has its nine-game winning streak snapped
by losing both ends of a Big West doubleheader to host Cal
State Fullerton Saturday.
The Beach traveled to a packed house to face its longtime
rival for first place in the Big West. The Titans increased
their national-best winning streak to 28 consecutive games
and improved their record to 37-9 overall and 11-0 in the
Big West. The 49ers dropped to 30-15 and 8-3.
In game one, The 49ers were undone by a rough third inning
and lost, 2-0. Amanda Hocking led off the third with a home
run, and an RBI single by Jodie Cox gave the Titans the two-run
advantage.
The 49ers tried to edge back in the fourth loading the bases,
but were unable to push a run across. Lindsey Knoff (12-10)
gave up the two runs and five other hits to take the loss.
Titan hurler Gina Oaks improved her record to 16-2 with the
victory.
In game two, The Beach lost, 5-0, after staff ace Medredith
Cervenka (17-4) gave up three Titan home runs. Senior Yasmin
Mossadeghi was responsible for four of the five runs for the
Titans. Mossadeghi struck first in the second inning with
a solo home run to left and the Titans four more runs in the
fifth to break the game open.
