The Pierce College Raiders softball team dropped both games of their doubleheader against the Everett Trojans, falling 12-5 in game one and 17-4 in game two. Despite the losses, the Raiders showed sparks of offensive power throughout the day, highlighted by a trio of home runs.

Nola Reily stayed consistent at the plate with two hits—including a double—two runs scored, and a walk. Samantha Tungsvik added a double and an RBI. In the fifth inning, Amelia Lopez crushed her fifth home run of the season, a two-run blast that cut into the Trojan lead. Karen Cervantes-Macias pitched the full six innings, striking out six.
Game two saw the Raiders flex their long-ball strength again. Nola Reily opened the scoring with a solo shot in the third inning. In the fifth, Karen Cervantes-Macias launched a two-run homer, immediately followed by Amelia Lopez's second home run of the day and sixth of the season.
