CHESTER, Pa. - Widener softball's home opener is spoiled by Eastern as they take both games in the doubleheader. 

The Pride fall to 3-5 and 0-2 in conference play. 
 

BY THE NUMBERS 

• The Pride would get four total hits today, recorded by Liv Robinson and Sam McCarthy in game one and Caitlyn Katchur and Katelyn Tong in game two. 

• Liv Robinson would lead game one in walks with two, while Paris Balilonis would get a game two best two walks. 

HOW IT HAPPENED: GAME ONE 

• The first inning saw no scores as Eastern would leave a runner on base and Widener would leave two. In the second, the Eagles would steal multiple bases and get two hits as they would score four in the top of the inning. The Pride would leave one on base as the second would end at 0-4. The third inning would be a quick one as neither team would get a hit and the Pride would end the third set still down 0-4.

Widener still would fail to record a hit in the bottom of the second, and both teams would go without a hit in the third inning.
