RALEIGH, N.C. – Salisbury University’s nationally-ranked softball squad experienced both highs and lows during Friday’s opening action at the Raleigh Triangle Classic tournament held at Walnut Creek Softball Complex.
The Sea Gulls, currently sitting at No. 25 in the national rankings, delivered a commanding performance against Eastern Mennonite University, securing a decisive 13-5 victory that concluded after just five innings of play.
However, the team’s second contest of the day proved more challenging, as they suffered a narrow 6-5 defeat at the hands of Piedmont University, evening their tournament record at 1-1 after the first day of competition.
The split results set up an intriguing continuation of tournament play for the Sea Gulls as they look to bounce back from the late-day setback.
