The Albright College softball team took the opener and had their chances to sweep, splitting a Myrtle Beach doubleheader with Gallaudet on Wednesday.
The Lions took game on 8-4, and dropped the second contest 3-2 despite outhitting Gallaudet 11-8 and stranding five runners over the final three innings.
Albright jumped all over the Bison with a five-run, two-out rally in their first time up.
Katie Civitello singled in
Natalie Carlucci, and
Jackie Bohanan came in on a wild pitch.
Freshman
Amanda Toto singled in Civitello to make it 3-0, and then scored along with

Nicole Bartron's single to left-center.
Trailing 3-2, the Lions stranded two in the fifth and couldn't plate Koch after the sophomore delivered a one-out double in the sixth. Snyder advanced to third in Albright's final chance, but a popup ended the threat.
