Box Score 1 | Box Score 2

SWARTHMORE, Pa. – The Ursinus College softball team closed its season on Saturday by dropping two games against Swarthmore in a Centennial Conference doubleheader.

In game one, Ursinus was held to three hits in a 3-0 loss to the Garnet, while in game two, Ursinus (10-24, 2-14 Centennial) saw Swarthmore (11-22, 3-13 Centennial) scored two times in the fifth to win 4-1.

Delia Mercurio also hit safely for the Bears in game one. Heinke took the loss, falling to 5-15. She struck out two and walked one.

In game two, Ursinus tied the score at 1-all in the fourth when freshman Morgan Worthington got on base with a double, then scored on a sacrifice fly by freshman Casey Derella. Heinke again led the way with two hits, both singles, while Mercurio and Shelby Edelson both hit safely.
