Bakersfield College's softball team lost its first two games then won the next two in a tournament last weekend at Fullerton College.
Before the tournament on Feb. 9, BC pitcher Jennifer Sisco pitched a no-hitter in an 8-0 victory over East Los Angeles.
BC had 10 hits, and only a hit batter kept Sisco from a perfect game. Including that game and the Fullerton tournament, the Renegades played five games with four taking place in 26 hours.
"I was very pleased. We were tired and sore," said coach Sandi Taylor after BC won its last game on Sunday.
In the first two games on Saturday, BC's Nicole Lancaster went 4 for 6, but the Renegades lost the first game to Antelope Valley 6-2 then lost to Saddleback 3-1.
In Sunday's games, the Renegades wasted no time scoring first in the first inning in game one against Golden West.
BC added one more run in the second inning and held Golden West to no runs and four hits. The win game pitcher Kori Marko (1-3) her first victory of the season.
In game four of the tournament against Cerritos College, the Renegades, who lost their season opener to Cerritos 2-1 in 12 innings, were able to pull off a 2-0 victory as Sisco (3-1) continues to show herself as one of team's strongest pitchers.
Nichole Lancaster leads the team's offense with a .379 batting average followed by Sisco's .333 and Ashleigh Pryor with a batting average of .304

Bakersfield College won four games to capture the title in the Light Brigade Tournament last weekend at Gerry Collis Field.
"Our pitching has been pretty stable for the first 12 games," said coach Tim Painton. "This weekend, our offense started coming around, and as a result we had a four and zero record."
In the first game on Feb. 10, the Renegades defeated Moorpark 7-6. In game two, the Renegades jumped on San Diego Mesa for 15 hits to win 8-6.
San Diego Mesa scored first, taking a 2-0 lead in the first inning. The Renegades came back with two runs in the second inning to tie the score, then scored four more in the third.
