FLORENCE, S.C. – The West Liberty University softball team dropped games to Bloomsburg and Francis Marion in its final day of a two-day trip to South Carolina Monday afternoon.

Game 1: Bloomsburg (9) – West Liberty (6)
The Hilltoppers scored four runs in the bottom of the seventh, but the deficit was too much to overcome falling 9-6 to Bloomsburg.

After a scoreless first two innings the Hilltoppers got the scoring started in the bottom of the third with two runs. Kayla Mancuso started the inning off with a double, then stole third, and came home on a wild pitch for the first run of the game. Then, Grace Swigart belted her first home run of the season over the left field fence on a 1-1 count with two outs to put WLU ahead 2-0.
