OMAHA, Neb. – For the first time this season the Seton Hall softball team (19-17-1, 5-6 BIG EAST) dropped both ends of a conference doubleheader by falling twice to Creighton (14-22, 5-6 BIG EAST) on Friday at the CU Sports Complex. The Hall dropped an 8-0 decision in six innings in game before a 3-2 heartbreaker in eight innings in game two.

Alexis Walkden (Cibolo, Texas) notched The Hall's lone RBI of the doubleheader with a solo home run in game two, her league-leading 11^th of the year. Reganne Camp (Bloomington, Ill.) turned in a gutsy performance in the circle in game two, pitching into extra innings and allowing only one run over the first seven innings before CU scored twice in the bottom of the eighth.

Game 1 Notes – Creighton 8, Seton Hall 0 (Six Innings)

The Bluejays scored single runs in each of the first three innings, breaking out for three in the fifth before a two-run home run in the sixth enacted the run-rule
Creighton held an 11-5 edge in hits, while SHU committed the game's lone error
For the Pirates, Lauren Fischer (Robbinsville, N.J.) went 2-for-3 with a pair of singles
Walkden finished 1-for-2 and drew a walk along with a stolen base
The swipe for Walkden pushes her to 8-for-8 on the year on the basepaths
Sara Foster (Long Beach, Calif.) led the game off with a double, signifying The Hall's lone extra-base hit
Also stealing a base was Valerie Suto (Mercerville, N.J.), marking her 12^th of the season and the 56^th of her career to rank fourth in school history

Game 2 Notes – Creighton 3, Seton Hall 2 (Eight Innings)

The Pirates jumped out ahead early, with Walkden launching a solo shot to left as the game's second batter to give The Hall a 1-0 lead
That lead held up until the bottom of the fifth when CU scratched across a run to level the contest
Still tied at 1-1 through seven the contest went to extras with the Pirates re-taking the lead in the top of the eighth when Foster scored on a wild pitch
The Bluejays answered in the bottom of the frame, tying the contest with an RBI double before winning it with a bases-loaded infield single
Camp finished her day after 7.1 innings, allowing three runs (one earned) on nine hits with four walks and six strikeouts
The Hall was out-hit 10-6 in the setback and committed the contest's lone error
Walkden's home run gives her 39 in her career, second in Seton Hall history

The Hall and Creighton close their three-game set on Saturday with first pitch set for 12 p.m. (ET).
