FROSTBURG, Md.--The Hood College softball team concluded its regular season Tuesday at Frostburg State University, falling 4-1 in the opener and 10-1 in five innings in the nightcap.

Hood (11-19) got on the board in the top of the first inning when Jamie Bussey drove in Sara Wastler who led off the frame with a single up the middle. But the Blazers managed just one basehit the rest of the game, that coming on a Kara Robert double in the top of the seventh.

The Bobcats drew even in the bottom of the second on an RBI-single by Samantha Quirin. Frostburg struck for three more runs in the bottom of the fifth. Lori Potts had a two-run double in the inning.

Jamie Gardner suffered the loss, allowing four runs over six innings. She surrendered seven basehits and struck out five along the way.

In the nightcap, the Bobcats jumped on the Blazers early, plating 10 runs on eight basehits in the bottom of the first. Starter Kara Robert retired leadoff hitter Potts on a grounder to first but the next 10 hitters reached and all of them eventually scored to stake the Bobcats to a commanding 10-0 lead.

The Blazers collected nine hits but stranded eight baserunners, settling for a single run in the top of the fifth. In that frame, the first three batters, Sara Wastler, Katherine Law and Jamie Gardner all singled to load the bases with no outs. Kate Hassell knocked in Wastler on a grounder to second, but relief pitcher Meghan Dabkowski got Stephanie Gardner and Alecia Weddle to pop up to retire the side.

Wastler, Law and Tamara Maggard all registered two hits in the ballgame.

The Blazers travel to Chambersburg, Pa., Saturday to defend their Atlantic Women's Colleges Conference crown. Top-seeded Hood takes on No. 4-seed Wells College at 10 a.m. in the opening round game.
