TAMPA, Fla. – St. Bonaventure dropped both of its contests today on day two of the USF Under Armour Invitational by falling to Campbell University by a score of 10-1 and tournament host USF, 8-0.

Game One:

Campbell gave St. Bonaventure all it could handle in the first game of day two at the Under Armour Invitational and won by a 10-1 margin. The Fighting Camels were propelled by three homeruns in the contest and limited the Brown and White to three hits.

The Bonnies jumped out to an early lead in the first inning coming off one hit and two walks. Kelli Rohan led off the game with a single to left field. She wouldn't stay at first-base long as she registered her first stolen base of the game. Two batters later, Grace Rooney walked on a full-count. With Katie Sinclair in the batter's box, Rohan stole her second base of the inning, while Rooney advanced to second on the throw. Rohan completed her trip around the bases from a passed ball.

Campbell quickly shut down the Brown and White after the first inning by only allowing two hits in the next five innings.  The Camels only led by two until the final two innings as they would go on to post seven runs coming from a single, double, triple and a home-run.

Campbell was predicted to finish second in the Big South softball preseason poll.

Game Two:

University of South Florida pitcher Sam Greiner had a career day on the mound by striking out nine St. Bonaventure batters en route to the Bulls 8-0 victory.

St. Bonaventure was limited to just three hits in the game, as Katie Sinclair singled to left field in both the first inning and sixth inning and Kelli Rohan singled to third also in the sixth.

USF was held to just one run until the fifth inning, and that is when the Bulls did most of their damage as they scored five runs off five hits to extend its lead to 6-0. The Bulls would tally two more runs in the sixth inning to close out the game.

USF is coming off of a Big East tournament championship a season ago and an NCAA Tournament berth.
