Softball: Bobcats perform well in weekend games

The Bobcats' Valentine's weekend road trip to North Carolina was a successful one.

Ohio won three of four games in Buies Creek, N.C., which included wins over Charleston Southern, Saint Joseph's and Bucknell.

The lone loss came against Campbell, who beat the Bobcats 8-6 on Saturday.

Emily Wethington was the star of the first day - getting a win and a save.

She pitched five innings, giving up just two earned runs and struck out five in Ohio's 3-2 win over Charleston Southern on Friday.

The Bobcats trailed 2-1 in the sixth when they loaded the bases.

Third baseman Sara Clark singled to score Alexis Zambrana. Candace Saucedo scored on the next at-bat on a fielder's choice to give Ohio the win.

Ohio beat St. Joseph's 4-2 later in the day.

The Bobcats (5-4) would win for the third time on the back of pitcher Melissa Bonner.

Bonner (2-1) pitched six and two-thirds innings and had six strikeouts with just one walk.

Ohio trailed 2-1 before scoring four runs in the seventh to grab its fifth win of the season.
