SALISBURY, Md. – The Ursinus Softball team dropped a pair of games in a doubleheader to No. 2 Salisbury on Saturday afternoon in non-conference action.
 
 
In game one, the Sea Gulls opened the scoring with a single with runners on first and third and one out to take the initial 1-0 lead. Salisbury extended their lead in the bottom of the second to 2-0 with a run being scored off a wild pitch. The Bears went toe-to-toe with the national runner-up Sea Gulls and sophomore pitcher Christa Andrusiewicz worked out of multiple jams to keep the score the same into the 5th inning. However, the Sea Gulls scored three runs off a trio of Bears errors over the next two innings that put their lead to 5-0. Junior Samantha Mallen led Ursinus at the plate by going 2-for-3 with a stolen base.
 
 
Salisbury hit the ground running in game two with a three-run home run to gain the early 3-0 lead. The Sea Gulls added three more runs in the bottom of the second off another three-run home run before scoring their final three runs from home runs as well in the 5th and 6th innings. Sophomore Kayla Carr went 2-of-3 at the plate for the Bears in game two.
 
 
Ursinus returns to action on Tuesday, April 16th as they will travel to face Swarthmore for a doubleheader in a rematch of last year's Centennial Conference Championship Series starting at 3:00 p.m.
