Softball Takes Loss to Creighton

'Cats fell to the Blue Jays 11-3 Saturday.

OMAHA, Neb. — The Villanova softball team lost 11-3 to Creighton Saturday at the Creighton Sports Complex. 

With the loss, the 'Cats (6-24, 2-6 BIG EAST) dropped the series. 

Carly Zych (L, 2-2) got her sixth start of the season, pitching an inning and a third, walking three and giving up five runs on two hits. 

Zych, who also was batting sixth in the lineup, opened the scoring in the game in the top of the second after she hit her first career home run, a solo shot off the foul pole in left field. 

The Blue Jays (14-17, 6-2) responded instantly, scoring seven runs in the bottom of the second, a majority of which came via a grand slam. 

After loading the bases, the 'Cats scored their final run of the game in the top of the third on a Lilly St. Jean walk to make it a 7-3 game. 

Creighton added two more in the bottom of the third, before scoring two in the bottom of the fifth to walk-off the contest and clinch the series.
