CLERMONT, Fla. – Senior designated player Gabby Colon (Buena, NJ/Buena Regional) ripped two doubles and drove home three runs to back the five-hit pitching of sophomore Brittany Scott (Buena, NJ/Buena Regional) as the Rutgers University-Camden softball team blanked SUNY-Potsdam at the Dot Richardson Spring Games Friday afternoon.

In their second game of the day, the Scarlet Raptors went 10 innings before settling for a 3-3 tie against Hamline University of Saint Paul, Minnesota.

Rutgers-Camden (6-3-1) concludes its trip to the Dot Richardson Spring Games on Saturday. The Scarlet Raptors face Oberlin College at 11 a.m. and Elmhurst College at 1 p.m.
Scott fired her second shutout of the season, striking out 12 and walking only one in her five-hitter. She raised her record to 5-2.

The Scarlet Raptors gave Scott the only run she needed in the second inning when junior shortstop Krystine Rice (Marlton, NJ/Cherokee) reached on a leadoff single. She eventually scored on a double to left-center by Colon.

The Raptors struck for four runs in the fifth, sparked by a leadoff home run from Scott, her third homer of the season. An error and a walk set up a two-run double by Colon, and sophomore rightfielder Steph Carfagno (Cherry Hill, NJ/Cherry Hill West) plated Colon with a single.

For the game, Colon went 2-for-3 with one run and three RBIs, while Scott was 2-for-4 with one run and one RBI. Rice scored two runs.

Sophomore third baseman Katie Marsman (Wantagh, NY/Wyoming Seminary) collected a pair of singles for the Bears, who drop to 0-2.
In a game stopped after 10 innings due to the late hour, the Scarlet Raptors saw the potential winning run thrown out at the plate on a controversial play for the last out of the game. It was their second runner lost at the plate in the inning, with the first coming on a fielder's choice that allowed freshman first baseman Jessea Macaluso (Charlotte, NC/Allentown) to reach base. Running with two outs, Macaluso tried to score on the second double of the game by sophomore centerfielder Lindsay Day (Mays Landing, NJ/Oakcrest). She was called out at the plate on a close call, ending the game in a tie.

Rutgers-Camden scored a pair of unearned runs in the first inning, but Hamline got them back in the second on a two-run home run from senior catcher Lauren Turitto (West St. Paul, MN/Henry Sibley).

Both teams plated a run in the eighth inning, aided by the international tie-breaker where the inning starts with a runner at second base. The Raptors' game-tying run came on a RBI single by Macaluso.

Scott pitched the entire 10 innings for her second complete game of the day. She allowed only five hits and two earned runs, while walking one and striking out seven.

Day, with her two doubles, was the lone batter with multiple hits in the game.
