BENTONVILLE, Ark. – The Drury Panthers suffered two losses on the first day of the Alvin Early Tournament in Bentonville, Arkansas on Saturday. Drury was blanked by Arkansas Tech, 6-0, in their first game, then fell 4-1 to Missouri Western State in their second contest.
 
Two Arkansas Tech pitchers combined to no-hit Drury in the Panthers' first game on Saturday. Bailey Buffington (3-1) got the win going five innings and striking three while allowing one walk. Kaila Cartwright pitched the final two frames for the Golden Suns, surrendering one walk with a strikeout.
 
Arkansas Tech got an early lead with a run in the first, then added two runs in the third. The win lifted the Golden Suns record to 4-2.

The Panthers got on the board in the first inning as Gracie Thomas drove in a run with a single that scored Meagan Mullaney to give Drury a 1-0 lead. Missouri Western tied the game with a run in the third, then took command on a three-run home run by MacKenzie Devine.
 
Sam Pederson (1-0) got the win going all seven innings and striking out nine. Kristina Bettis (1-3) took the loss for Drury.
