San Jose State snags GCU Invitational finale
3/6/2022 2:11:00 PM | Softball
Fifield's solo home run was Lopes' lone run of home loss
The Grand Canyon softball team closed out the GCU Invitational with an 11- loss to San Jose State on Sunday at GCU Softball Stadium.
Â
The Spartans scored early and often as they hung six runs in the first inning and three in the second to put the Lopes (15-5) in a deep, early hole. GCU junior right fielder Kristin Fifield hit a solo shot in the bottom of the second inning to give the Lopes their only run of the game.Â
Â
San Jose State scored two more runs in the third inning before the Lopes brought in senior pitcher Ryan Denhart, who came in with runners on and no outs and shut down the Spartans. Denhart threw three scoreless innings, striking out three and only allowing two baserunners.
Â
GCU is back in action on Wednesday against Ball State at 6 p.m. in GCU Softball Stadium.
