TUESDAY: OC 7, AHC 6 (10 INN) | BOX SCORE
In a tightly contested Western State Conference matchup, Hancock dropped a 10-inning heartbreaker to Oxnard College, 7-6, despite a gritty performance.
After trailing 4–1 early, the Bulldogs came alive in the fifth with a three-run rally to tie the game, then added two more in the sixth to briefly take the lead. Oxnard answered with a run in the seventh to force extras, and ultimately plated two runs in the top of the 10th to escape with the win.
AHC collected eight hits on the day, with strong offensive contributions from Dezirae Rodriguez (2 hits, 1 RBI), Robertson-Mack (RBI double), and Dolores, who also doubled and drove in a run. Shianne Gooley had two hits, one run scored, and a stolen base, while Juliza Evans also stole a base as a pinch runner. Matthews and Sanchez also notched two RBIs apiece on the day.
In the circle, Robertson-Mack started the game but faced an early exit after 1.2 frames. Michel pitched 8.1 strong innings in relief, allowing just two earned runs and striking out seven.
