Ladies Take Two From the Trojans
3/23/10 –The Crimson Wave softball team participated in a rare occurrence Tuesday against Trinity International University when they took their home field as the visiting team. The Trojan field was unplayable from the weekend storm and was moved to Standard Diamonds.
In game one, the Crimson Wave started out by plating two runs. While the Crimson Wave would score more, it was all pitcher, Jessica Noble needed to get the win. She scattered four hits by the Trojans over seven innings for the 7-0 shutout victory. Not only did Noble get it done on the mound, but at the plate as well, with a single, a run scored and an RBI.
Christy Atton led the offense with a 2-3 showing, scoring two and two RBI, while Jessica Pabey went 1-2 with a run scored and two RBI. Ashley Berumen also contributed with a 1-3 effort on a blast that would only be contained in Standard Diamonds for a double that drove in a run.
In game two, the visiting Crimson Wave picked up right where game one left off. Atton took the mound for the nightcap. While she threw a great game earning the victory and working three innings with three hits, three runs (just one earned) and two strikeouts, it was her bat that electrified the crowd with a 4-5 performance, scoring four runs and driving in two.
Everyone that was in the lineup got on base; however Pabey would lead the way getting two hits, scoring two runs and four RBI and Noble came off the bench to get two hits, scoring one run and one RBI. Betty Fuentes came in to get valuable experience and did a great job keeping the Trojan hitters off-balance.

Unfortunately, a strong CCSJ fifth inning was met with a stronger AMU side with the Gyrenes topping the Crimson Wave 14-11. Naranjo-Peacock fell to 0-1 on the year in a performance that was stronger than the score shows.
Where most teams would have been spent, the Crimson Wave crashed the winning ways of the Gyrenes by a score of 12-1 in six innings. Freshmen Betty Fuentes (El Paso, Tx./Socorro) evened her record to 1-1 while the crimson-hot bats of junior Angela Naranjo-Peacock (Chico, Ca./Butte College) and freshman Jessica Pabey (East Chicago, IN/East Chicago Central) went 3-4 with one run and two RBI and 3-5 with three runs, a steal and three RBI.
Poised to even out the series at three games apiece, freshmen Betty Fuentes (El Paso, Tx./Socorro) continued her day in the circle; however, the Crimson Wave bats were silenced. Juniors Janet Guill (Chico, Ca./Butte College) and Becky Liebermann (Channahon, Ill./South-Suburban College) went 1-3 with a run and 2-4 respectively in a 4-2 loss. Fuentes moves to 1-2 on the year.
