WISE, V.A. - Salem International University's softball team suffered two losses against the University of Virginia - Wise in the opening weekend of the 2013 season.
Katie Mangold (Kearneysville, WV) and Isabel Villalobos (Yuma, AZ)picked up the losses for Salem.
"It's a little disappointing start to the season," said SIU Coach Steve Potts. "I don't want to take anything away from UVA-Wise, they played two good games. However, it was a combination of us not getting enough hits, too many walks, and the defense was a little rusty because we haven't been able to get on the field yet this year."
"But it's early," he continued. "Two games don't make a season. Everything is correctable. We just need to go back and realize where we are weak and what we need to work on and improve.
Salem will look to rebound when they make a trip though North Carolina March 1st through the 4th. The Lady tigers are scheduled to play double-headers against Belmont Abbey (March 1st), St. Augustine (March 2nd), Johnson C. Smith (March 3rd), and to finish off the expedition against Shaw University in a make-up game that was rescheduled due to weather.
