KISSIMMEE, Fla. – The Nichols College softball team fell in a pair of games on its third day at the Spring Rebel Games. The Bison lost to Rowan, 10-0, in the morning and then dropped an 8-3 decision to Spring Arbor in the afternoon.

Rowan held the Bison to just one hit in this morning's opener, collected by first-year infielder Savannah Thibault (Marlboro, Mass.), who finished 1-for-2 at the plate.

In the second game, first-year infielder Kylie Langton (Medford, Mass.) went 1-for-3 with a double and sophomore Alena Murdock (Pittsfield, Mass.) was also 1-for-3 with an RBI, but Spring Arbor built up seven runs on 10 hits by the fifth inning.
