Johnson Tosses One-Hitter to Push Troy Past North Florida
2/9/2020 6:06:00 PM | Softball
TROY, Ala- Leanna Johnson tossed a one-hit shutout to power the Trojans past North Florida in the Trojan Classic finale Sunday at the Troy Softball Complex.
Johnson (2-1) earns her second shutout victory of the season fanning six batters and giving up just one hit in seven innings of work.
Troy (3-1) struck first in the bottom of the second inning. Kelly Horne led off with a single and came around to score following a walk and a fielder's choice.
The Trojans added two runs to their lead in the bottom of the fourth inning with a pair of doubles by Logan Calhoun and Katie Lively and a single by Kaylee Chapman.
In the bottom of the sixth inning, Johnson found herself in a bases loaded jam after giving up three walks but forced a groundout to remain unscathed.
Morgan Clausen (1-1) suffered the loss for North Florida (2-2) giving up three runs off four hits and a walk.
Sound "Smartt" with Your Friends
Quotable- Head Coach Beth Mullins
"I thought that overall it was a solid weekend. We pitched and played solid defense. We still have some things we need to work on and get better at, but I know this group will be excited to get back out there this next week."
Next Up
The Trojans hit the road for the first time in the 2020 season on Wednesday when they travel to Birmingham, Ala., to square off against in-state foe, Samford. First pitch is scheduled for 5 p.m.
