Bellwood-Antis opened its softball season at Bellwood on Tuesday with a 6-1 loss to Hollidaysburg.
\nThe Lady Blue Devils broke open a scoreless tie with a single tally in the third inning with B-A catcher Charlie Burns singling and scoring on an error.
\nHollidaysburg broke through with four runs in the top of the fourth to break up Kali Schreckengost\u2019s shutout bid and hung on for the win.
\n\u201cWe didn\u2019t play too badly for our first game,\u201d said B-A softball coach John Hammond. \u201cWe played well in the field, but we just couldn\u2019t get our bats going. We have to get hits when we have runners on base.\u201d
\nThe Bellwood-Antis bats were able to get to Hollidaysburg starter Kristine Brown for six hits, but could manage just the one run.
\nSchreckengost started for the Lady Blue Devils and took the loss, striking out three and walking three and Danielle Gardner came in relief to strike out one and walk one.
\nBellwood-Antis will face defending state champion Penns Valley at Bellwood on Thursday
