WINTER PARK, Fla. - The Eckerd College softball team could not hold back 17th-ranked Rollins College this afternoon as the Tritons dropped both shortened games of today's doubleheader 10-0 and 14-0.
Three RC hitters had four runs batted in on the day, led by junior Aimee Haplin's perfect 5-for-5 outing. The Tars hit over .500 as a team on the afternoon (24-for-47).
Freshman Brittany Mitchell had a rough outing in the game-one loss. She saw eight batters in the first inning and allowed four hits and three runs in the opening frame.

The Tritons had three hits in the opener and drew one walk.
Rollins College sophomore Amy McIntyre pitched a one-hit complete game and struck out 10 in the finale as the Tars' offense exploded for 14 runs.
Rollins batted around the lineup in the first inning in game two and scored six runs off of three hits in the opening frame. The Tars did not slow down late in the game as they poured on seven runs off of seven hits in the fourth inning to close out the afternoon.
