CLERMONT, Fla. – Cornell's softball team was victim to one big inning Sunday morning in a 9-0 setback to Aurora at Legends Way Field.
 
The Spartans broke a scoreless game with a seven-run third inning in which they sent 12 batters to the plate. Aurora (1-0), a 35-win team a year ago, ended the contest early after scoring single runs in the fourth and fifth frames.
 
Third baseman Claire Gugerty accounted for Cornell's lone hit, a leadoff single in the bottom of the fourth.
 
Aurora capitalized on five Cornell errors and recorded eight strikeouts in the pitching circle.

Sunday's scheduled game with Wittenberg was canceled. 
 
The Rams (0-7) return to the diamond Tuesday with games against Nebraska Wesleyan at 9 a.m. and Lakeland at 11:30 a.m.
