Box Score RIVERSIDE, Calif. – The Cal State Fullerton softball team completed their series sweep over UC Riverside in a 6-2 victory on Sunday. The Titans improved to 34-14 overall and 19-5 in Big West play. 

The Titans and Highlanders remained scoreless through three innings before Sarah Coccillos scored Briona Ferdman, who came in to pinch run for Ava Arce after leading off the fourth with a base hit. 

Arce (2-for-4, R) remained an instrumental force for the Titans in the top of the sixth inning, reaching on another base hit up the middle, stealing second base, and scoring on an error by UC Riverside's catcher, for a 2-0 lead over the Highlanders.

Eva Hurtado saw 6.2 innings, holding the Highlanders to two runs off eight hits and two walks, while collecting five strikeouts. Trisha McCleskey entered to find the final out for the Titans with runners on first and second. McCleskey pitched one ball before Colby McClinton secured their sixth series sweep with a lineout.
