The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga softball Mocs continued their early-season trend by going 1-1 on the second day of their Chattanooga Challenge tournament Saturday at Warner Park.

This time the Mocs rebounded from a 7-5 loss to Bowling Green with a 5-3 defeat of Indiana State behind the complete-game pitching of Celie Hudson (3-0) and Emma Sturdivant’s bases-loaded, two-run tiebreaking single in the bottom of the sixth inning. Aly Walker and Katie Corum had RBI hits in the first inning of that game, and UTC tied the score at 3 in the fifth on an error on Corum’s bases-full batted ball.

Emily Coltharp and Jenice Casanas at the top of the lineup each was 1-for-2 and scored twice in the Mocs’ win.

UTC scored three runs in the first inning of Saturday’s first game, but Bowling Green already had five. Morgan Kazerooni was 2-for-3 with a two-run homer and Cameren Swafford had a two-run single for the Mocs.

West Georgia 3-14, Lee 2-1
