MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - Jackie Pareso (Washington, PA/Canevin Catholic) hit a RBI single in the sixth inning to knock in Jenna Pabst (Boonton Twp., NJ/Mountain Lakes) for the game-winning run as Gettysburg defeated Arcadia 2-1 on the final day of softball action in Myrtle Beach.

Tied 1-1 in the top of the sixth inning, Pabst beat the throw home to score on a line drive by the shortstop by Pareso for the 2-1 win.
