EMMITSBURG, Md. – Jamie Fowler (Hagerstown, Md./South Hagerstown) ended her career on a high note, tossing a five-inning complete-game one-hitter to lead Mount St. Mary's past Morgan State 8-0 in the nightcap of a non-conference softball doubleheader on Thursday. The Bears won the opener, 9-6.

In addition, the senior smacked a single off the third base bag in the sixth inning for her first hit of the year in only bat in her senior campaign. She also recorded the final two outs in the opener.

Courtney Zingle (Ambler, Pa./Hatboro-Horsham) had three hits, two runs scored and an RBI for the Mount (18-30) while Nicole Reeder (Glen Burnie, Md./Archbishop Spalding) had three hits, three RBIs and a run scored in the twinbill.

In the nightcap with Fowler breezing along, Mount St. Mary's scored eight runs in the first three innings to put the game away.

Beebe then came home on Reeder's RBI single and Zingle touched home on Beth Everist's (Lansdale, Pa./North Penn) groundout while Reeder scored thanks to a Bears' error on the play for a 3-0 advantage.

Jenna Zimmerman (Walkesrville, Md./Walkersville) singled up the middle to start the second and came around to score on Zingle's single to increase the lead to four runs.

The Mountaineers then put the game away in the third with four runs to take an 8-0 lead. Ashley Lodato (Brick, N.J./Ranney) walked and Kristin Fusco (Laurel, Md./St. Vincent Pallotti) single up the middle. Katie Donovan (Seabrook, Md./St. Vincent Pallotti) reached on an error to allow Lodato to score and then Fusco touched home when Donovan stole second and the throw went into center field for a 6-0 margin. Zimmerman plated Donovan on a double through the left side and Amanda Buckel (Finksburg, Md./North Carroll) capped the rally with a run-scoring single up the middle.

In the opener, Morgan State grabbed a 4-0 advantage thanks to two runs in the first and third.

Mount St. Mary's answered with three runs in the bottom of the third when Zimmerman hit a sacrifice fly to plate Donovan and Lodato also crossed home courtesy of an error on the play and Reeder brought home Beebe with a single up the middle to make it a one-run ballgame.

The Bears reclaimed a four-run lead with three runs in the fifth to take a 7-3 lead.

Reeder got a run back in the bottom of the fifth on an RBI single to bring home Zingle.

Morgan State answered right back with a run in the sixth while the Mountaineers scored twice in the inning thanks to Beebe and Fusco RBIs to trim the margin to 8-6. The Bears then sealed the win with an insurance run in the seventh.
