ROCHESTER, Michigan - Oakland University softball opened the Citrus Classic at the ESPN Wide World of Sports in Orlando, Florida, with a pair of losses to Troy, 5-4, and Morgan State, 8-3. Redshirt sophomore Cammie Brummitt paced the Golden Grizzlies with three hits on the day. 

Brummitt notched one of Oakland's three extra base hits of the day. She finished the day 3-of-8 with a run and RBI. Redshirt sophomore Madison Jones led the Golden Grizzlies (3-3) with three RBI to go with her two runs. Jones' lone hit of the day was a triple. 

Sophomore Sidney Rayba and sophomore Lauren Griffith joined Brummitt as the lone Oakland batters to register two hits between the two games.  

In the circle, freshman Sydney Campbell started against the Trojans, giving up three earned on five hits. Campbell went 5.2 innings with six strikeouts. Junior Lauryn DeBono got the ball in game two, completing 3.0 innings before junior Chelsea Wiggins came in as relief. DeBono surrendered four earned in 2.0 innings. Wiggins threw 5.1 innings, striking out four and giving up two earned on four hits. 

Against Morgan State (2-4), a pair of early errors by the Bears put runners in scoring position for Oakland. The Golden Grizzlies took advantage on the bases to jump out 2-0. 

In the bottom of the second, a pair of walks and a Rayba single to left loaded the bases for Jones. The savvy junior watched ball four come across the play to score a run. 

Morgan State would roar back though in the third with four runs. The Bears opened the frame with three-straight singles. Morgan State put the contest away in the fifth with another four-run effort. 

The Golden Grizzlies opened the day with Troy (7-2). Oakland jumped out to a 3-0 lead through three innings before the Trojans posted five in the fourth. 

In the top of the first, Jones tripled to left center to score senior Rachel Zerona. It was the second triple by Jones this season, and she is the lone Golden Grizzly to notch a triple. Oakland has combined for 12 extra base hits through six games. Brummitt capped off the frame with a single toward left to bring around Jones. 

In the third, after back-to-back ground outs, Brummitt smacked her third double of the season. Griffith - who came into the week with a team-high six hits - doubled to left center to push the Golden Grizzly lead to 3-0. 

A pair of early errors and a hit batter in the bottom of the fourth set the table for a big side for Troy. The Trojans tallied four hits, scoring five. 

Freshman pitcher Sydney Campbell went three full innings before Wiggins came in the fourth in relief. Campbell had two strikeouts - giving up five hits and three earned runs. Wiggins finished out the game, limiting Troy to just one hit and striking out two. 

Oakland trailed early in the season's first two contests against Buffalo and USC-Upstate last week. Since, the Golden Grizzlies have scored first in the last four games. 

Oakland continues tournament play at the Citrus Classic on Saturday, February 22, with Clemson and Villanova. Game one versus the Tigers is set to start at 1 pm.
