Ohio State Takes Game One

COLUMBUS, Ohio. - The Maryland softball team faced Ohio State for its first of a four-game series on Friday. Despite three recorded hits for the Terps, the team was unable to answer the Buckeye's five total runs. 

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Taylor Okada got things started for the Terps in the top of the first, singling to center field to get on base, but wasn't able to make it back around in time. Ohio State went down in order to follow 
  • After a quiet top of the second for Maryland, Ohio State notched three runs on four hits after loading the bases to put them up 3-0 early in the game 
  • Innings three and four were eventless for both sides, until Ohio added on another two runs on two hits in the bottom of the fifth to leave Maryland down 5-0 
  • The Terps made a great defensive effort in the sixth, forcing the Buckeyes out in order once more
  • Despite sophomore Trinity Schlotterbeck getting to first after being struck by a pitch, the Terps couldn't get her back around, ultimately leading to Ohio State taking the win 5-0 

UP NEXT
Maryland will play a doubleheader against Ohio State beginning on Saturday, March 27 at 1:00 p.m. at Buckeye Stadium.
