Game Summary
Northwestern falls to 1-3 on the season, with a 3-1 conference loss at Salisbury on Friday afternoon. Once again, the offense for the Tigers was very quiet, only able to muster up 1 (unearned run) and 5 hits on the day. For 5 of the 7 innings, Northwestern did not send up more than 4 batters in an inning. Strong effort on the mound by senior, S O'Donnell, who gave up all 3 runs (unearned) in the 5th inning, with a couple of errors, and defensive blunders. The Tiger are now 1-3, 1-1, but better get it figured out quickly, as it will not get any easier with Southern Lehigh coming to town, on Tuesday.
