WASHINGTON, D.C. - Coppin State's softball team dropped a pair of games at George Washington University on Wednesday afternoon at the Mount Vernon Campus. The Eagles dropped the first game, 11-0 before falling, 6-2 in the nightcap.

Â
Manaia Fonoti gave Coppin an early lead in the nightcap with double in the first, driving in
Brissa Alvarado who singled earlier in the inning.
Â
GW came right back with two runs in the bottom half of the inning before CSU tied it up in the third on an RBI single by Alvarado.
Â
The Colonials retook the lead with two runs in the third and two more in the fourth before
Vanessa Carrizosa held them scoreless in the final two innings.
Â
Alvarado continued her hot-hitting with a other multi-hit effort, as did
Celeste Gonzales.
Â
Carrizosa went the distance in the circle, giving up five runs while striking out five in the complete game.
Â
Coppin returns to action at the JMU Dukes Invitational where it'll play Fairleigh Dickinson and the Dukes on Friday, Saint Joseph's on Saturday, and both FDU and Radford on Sunday.
