<\/p>\n MIAMI \u2014 FIU’s softball program dropped its non-conference tilt with Florida Atlantic on Wednesday evening, 10-2, at Baptist Health Stadium.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Panthers (23-9) suffered just their third home defeat of the season on Wednesday night, falling to in-state rival Florida Atlantic (22-11) at home. FIU trailed 2-0 early, but tied the game on a two-run homer from Leah Clark<\/a> in the bottom of the first. From there, the Owls pushed across eight unanswered runs and allowed just two hits the rest of the way.\u00a0<\/p>\n Kally Meredith<\/a>, Sammy Zelenka<\/a> and Clark accounted for FIU’s three hits in the game. In the circle, Kennedy Byrd<\/a> (7-4) gave up four earned runs on four hits in 4.1 innings, suffering the loss. Megan Villazon and Megan Kruger<\/a> both pitched in relief, allowing six combined runs in the final 2.2 innings.\u00a0<\/p>\n UP NEXT BAPTIST HEALTH SOCIAL MEDIA
