The Friars return to action on Sunday, March 1 at 10:00 a.m. against Syracuse

COLLEGE PARK, Md.- The Providence College softball team fell to UMBC, 5-4, and Maryland, 15-8, on day two of the Terrapin Invitational. Freshman pitcher Addyson Frye (New Castle, Pa.) started against Maryland in the circle and recorded a grand slam at the plate.  
 
UMBC NOTES (GAME 1) 
• UMBC opened the scoring in the bottom of the first to take a 3-0 lead. 
• The Retrievers added two runs in the fourth to extend their lead (5-0). 
• Providence cut the deficit to 5-2 in the top of the sixth when Becca Weaver (Cary, Ill.) scored on a wild pitch and Emma Eichten (Alamo, Calif.) drove in Sofia Peterson (Bordentown, N.J.). 
• Zoe Krizan (Pittsburgh, Pa.) and Emily Jonte (Allen, Texas) scored on an RBI by Peterson in the seventh inning to cut the score to 5-4, but the rally fell short as UMBC hung on to win the game. 
• Peterson led the offense with two hits and one RBI. 
 
MARYLAND NOTES (GAME 2) 
• Maryland took a 4-0 lead in the first inning.
• The Friars loaded the bases and freshman Addyson Frye blasted a grand slam to tie game in the second inning, 4-4.  
• The Friars recorded two hits in the third, but left the bases loaded to end the inning. Jonte and Hailey Frantz (Danville, Calif.) both singled on hard hit pitches to left field.  
• In the fourth inning, Providence cut into the Maryland lead when Brianna De La Fuenta (Metuchen, N.J. ) singled to shallow center field, driving in Gabriella Lee (Belmont, Calif.) from second base to make it an 8-5 game.  
• In the fifth, Lee reached on a fielder's choicer, which yielded two runs for the Friars to make it a one-score game (8-7).
• In the sixth, Frantz reached on a fielding error and advanced to second on the throw. Peterson was able to cross the plate with solid base running to get the Friars within 9-8. 
• Maryland pulled away in the sixth inning to claim a 15-8 win.
