Stingers Fall 11-3 to Gaston College in Game 2 of Doubleheader

Florence-Darlington Technical College's softball team faced a tough challenge against Gaston College on Saturday, falling 11-3 in Game 2 of the doubleheader. Despite a strong effort from Larissa Siders, who scored twice and stole a base, the Stingers were unable to overcome their opponent.

FDTC managed six hits but struggled to convert them into runs. Siders led the offense with two hits and two runs scored, while Camryn Jordan and Savannah Sherman each drove in an RBI. However, the team couldn't capitalize on these efforts to narrow the gap.

Pitcher Mackenzie Kubas had a difficult outing, allowing 11 earned runs on seven hits over four innings. Kubas faced 29 batters, throwing 100 pitches, with only 44 strikes, which contributed to control issues and the team's scoring deficit. The Stingers' defense also faltered, committing one error that allowed Gaston College to extend their lead.

The game highlighted areas for improvement, particularly in pitching and defensive execution, as the Stingers look to bounce back in future contests.
