Behrend Remains Undefeated at Home; Shoots Down Hawks
Behrend
softball (20-4, 7-1) improved to 6-0 at home when they beat Hilbert in
two straight on Monday, April 10. Behrend won both games of
the doubleheader in decisive fashion 11-0 and 3-1 respectively.
Behrend was hot right off the start in game one as they
scored three runs in the first inning. Freshmen Nikki
Kaschauer (South Park/South Park) and Allison Babish
(Coraopolis/Montour) each scored three runs, while freshmen Julie
Koman (McKees Rocks/Montour), who leads the AMCC in ERA, threw a
2-hit shutout to continue her outstanding play.
In the fourth inning of a scoreless game two, the blue and white
knocked in three runs to take the lead. Hilbert would get on
the scoreboard with a run in the fifth, but could not put together a
comeback. Behrend's Sandra Jaussi (Bethel Park/Bethel Park)
got the win. The junior pitched five strong innings and
yielded just a single run. Freshman Katie Whitby had two RBIs
while Kaschauer was 2-for-3 at the plate in game two.
Softball remains at home and will welcome AMCC opponent Medaille on
Wednesday, April 12 in a televised doubleheader beginning at 3:00
p.m. The team will
then close out the home stand on Saturday, April 15 against Mt. Aloyisius.
