UCC Riverhawks Softball 2-3 Southwestern Oregon

A late rally came up just short for the UCC Riverhawks as they dropped a heartbreaking 3-2 softball decision to Southwestern Oregon on Friday afternoon. The non-league matchup saw both teams battle through a defensive contest that remained tight throughout.

The Riverhawks managed to push across two runs but couldn't quite find the clutch hit needed to complete the comeback against their regional rivals. Southwestern Oregon's offense capitalized on key opportunities to build their narrow advantage and held on for the victory.

The loss drops UCC to 5-8 on the season as they continue working to find consistency at the plate and in key situations. While the defeat stings, the competitive nature of the game showed the Riverhawks' ability to stay in close contests against quality opponents.

With several games remaining on their schedule, the Riverhawks will look to bounce back quickly and build momentum heading into the final stretch of the season. The team returns to action next week as they continue their spring campaign.
