Mesa, Ariz. – The Park University Gilbert softball team celebrated their two seniors, Anissa Corrales and Raylissa Garcia, with a makeup game against Westcliff University. The Buccaneers were unable to produce a run and dropped their final home game to the Warriors, 7-0.

It was a slow start to the game, with the first hit coming in the top of the third frame. The first two runs came from Westcliff in the fourth at the bat of Alexyia Reyes who hit a 2 RBI double.

The Warriors put five more on the board in the top of fifth, closing out the game and handing the Buccaneers their sixth loss. 

Regardless of the result, Park was able to celebrate and recognize their two graduating seniors, center fielder Corrales, and catcher Garcia.

Garcia is one of the original members of the 2019 squad. During the 2021-2022 season, she had 17 runs on 29 hits and ended with a .271 BA. This year, Garcia finished her homestand with 93 putouts and 14 RBI.

Corrales joined the Buccaneers after transferring from Chandler Gilbert Community College. This year, she has been a staple in the lineup, and a difference maker in the outfield. Last season, Corrales finished with nine runs on 24 hits and 12 RBI. The 2023 season proved to be successful for the Gilbert, Ariz. native, as she went 27-33 with 14 RBI.

Park resumes play against Benedictine University Mesa on April 22 at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. The games are scheduled to be held at Seton High School in Chandler, Ariz.
