The Hawaii softball team’s season came to an end Friday after a pair of losses at the Big West Championship in Fullerton, Calif.
“Tough one. Like I told the girls, I liked their battle, I liked their fight. Just wasn’t our day,” first-year UH coach Panita Thanatharn said during a postgame news conference.
In the first game, Colby McClinton hit a two-out, two-run, walk-off homer in the bottom of the seventh inning as top-seeded Cal State Fullerton beat Hawaii 6-4. Trisha McCleskey pitched five scoreless innings of relief for the top-seeded Titans.
Millie Fidge batted 2-for-4 with a double, a homer and two RBIs for the No. 2 Rainbow Wahine.
In the second game, Bella Fuentes drove in three runs and Tehya Banks scored three times in No. 3 UC Santa Barbara’s 8-6 win over Hawaii.
Keely Kai hit a three-run homer and Kayara Tuiloma had two RBIs for the Rainbow Wahine.
Hawaii finished the season 30-20.
“This season was great overall,” UH pitcher Hannah Pitts said. “Looking back this season, we definitely had a lot of fun and a lot of memories. At the end of the day, that’s what we’re going to think about when we’re older.”
It was the final game for Rainbow Wahine seniors Ellyanna Cinzori, Fidge, Maycen Gibbs, Larissa Goshi, Carys Murakami, Pitts and Cierra Yamamoto.
