No. 22 Trailblazers split Saturday DH at No. 17 Colorado Mesa

No. 22 Dixie State softball opened its 2019 road schedule on Saturday, splitting a pair of Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference games against No. 17 Colorado Mesa in Grand Junction, Colorado.
 
The Trailblazers (10-3, 4-2 RMAC) opened the day with a 6-0 shutout win over the Mavericks before falling by a 6-2 count in the second game of the doubleheader.
 
GAME ONE – Dixie State 6, Colorado Mesa 0
 
Dixie State opened the scoring with three runs on four hits in the top of the second. Kori Gahn started things off with a leadoff double to right field, then scored four pitches later when Bailey Gaffin doubled to left center field. Dani Bartholf and Kaitlyn Delange later added RBI-singles to stake DSU to a 3-0 lead.
 
The Trailblazers added to the lead with two runs on two hits and one CMU error in the top of the fourth. Taylor Godfrey plated the first run with a sacrifice fly to left field, followed by a Kaitlyn Delange RBI-infield single to extend the lead to 5-0.
 
DSU wrapped up the scoring in the top of the sixth inning, pushing the score to the final tally of 6-0. Godfrey doubled to right center, then scored when Delange doubled down the right field line.
 
Delange led the DSU attack at the plate in game one, turning in a perfect 3-for-3 performance with 3 RBI. Cambrie Hazel improved to 4-1 in the pitcher's circle, tossing a complete-game shutout with eight strikeouts.
 
GAME TWO – Colorado Mesa 6, Dixie State 2
 
Colorado Mesa opened the scoring in game two with a two-out RBI-single up the middle to take a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the third.
 
The lead didn't last long as the Trailblazers responded in the top of the fourth with two runs. Jessica Gonzalez took a full-count hit-by-pitch to get on base, then Gahn blasted a 2-1 pitch over the fence in left field to take a 2-1 lead. But DSU's lead was also short-lived.
 
The Mavericks countered with four runs on five hits, including a two-out, three-run home run to left center, to build a 5-2 lead in the bottom of the fourth. CMU added an insurance run in the bottom of the sixth with an RBI-single to push the score to the final tally of 6-2.
 
Gahn, Godfrey, and Mikaela Thomson were the only three Trailblazers to record a hit in the second game. Carissa Burgess (6-1) suffered her first collegiate loss in the pitcher's circle, striking out four in the complete-game effort.
 
Dixie State and Colorado Mesa will wrap up the four-game series with another doubleheader on Sunday, beginning at 11 a.m. in Grand Junction.
