SAN JOSE, Calif. – Mia Reynolds threw her fifth complete game of the season in a shutout effort to lead San José State softball (13-15, 2-2 MW) in a tight 1-0 win over Colorado State (11-16, 2-2 MW) from Spartan Softball Complex on Friday evening.
Senior pitcher Reynolds delivered a commanding performance, striking out eight batters and allowing only two hits over seven shutout innings. Her dominance on the mound earned her the win, improving her record to 8-9 on the season.
The game’s lone run came in the third inning when Aneesa Almaguer reached base on a single up the middle and later scored on a fielder’s choice by Reina Zermeno. Despite multiple scoring opportunities, both teams were held in check by strong defensive play and excellent pitching.
San José State will look to carry this momentum into their next game as they continue Mountain West Conference play on Saturday.
