LAS VEGAS -- Malory Masajlo went 4 for 6 with five RBI, Sarah Langley went 5 for 8 with two RBI and Jordann White blasted a go-ahead two-run home run in the second game of the day that eventually held up as the difference as the Sonoma State softball team opened the 2017 season with a pair of wins, a 19-12 thrashing of Montana State Billings and a 3-2 triumph over Sioux Falls on day one of the MSUB Desert Stinger in Las Vegas.

In the opening game, Karly Macadangdang roped three doubles in the 19-12 win over Montana State Billings as the Seawolves put up 10 runs in the top of the third to set the tone.  Six more runs came across the plate in the fifth to help the Seawolves run away with the win. 

In game two of the day, the Seawolves trailed 2-0 in the fifth before Sarah Langley scored on an error by the catcher to cut the deficit in half.  Then, in the sixth, White went yard, scoring Jenny Collazo to put Sonoma up 3-2, which would eventually be the final tally. 

Brigid Ruiz had a solid outing in her Seawolf debut, going all seven innings allowing seven hits, two runs (one earned) and striking out five.

Sonoma State will return to action Saturday against Hawaii Hilo (11:30 am) and Texas Women's University (4:30 pm).
