CLERMONT, Fla. – The Allegheny softball team opened up their 2026 season at THE Spring Games in Clermont, Fla. Sunday (March 1) with a doubleheader.

Carnegie Mellon regained the lead with two runs on two hits and an error in the bottom of the fourth.
 
The Gators made up the run in the next inning. Phillips singled with two outs. Sharp then singled to left field, and the ball got past the fielder, bringing Phillips in to tie the game at three.
