ALEXANDRIA, LA- In day one of the Generals Showdown Softball tournament, the Generals faced the Eagles of Central Methodist University, and they went on to take on Georgia Gwinnett College. 
 
The Eagles were able to get on the board early scoring their fourth and final point in the 5^th inning. The Generals we're able to get the bats rolling until the 7^th inning after going down in order for the previous innings. Generals had runners in scoring positions, but a fly out to left field with two out crushed the Generals chance at a comeback. 
 
Game two ended in five innings after Georgia Gwinnett went into the 5^th inning leading 7-1. With Pelaez up to bat for the Grizzlies in the 5^th with two base runners on, her double to right field sealed the win over the Generals. 
 
The Generals will be back in action for Day 2 of the Generals Showdown facing William Carey University and Lindsey Wilson College. First pitch is set for 10:00 AM.
