SMITHFIELD, R.I. - Host Bryant University swept a
Northeast-10 softball doubleheader from Southern New Hampshire
University by scores of 8-2 and 3-1 Thursday afternoon at the
Bryant Softball Complex. The Bulldogs improved to 10-6 and
8-0 in NE-10 play, while the Penmen are now 3-8 and 0-4 in the
league.
In game one, Bryant, which was
playing as the visitor, broke open a 3-2 game with five runs in the
top of the seventh. The Penmen took a 1-0 lead in the botton
of the second when Nicole Arpin (Cheshire, CT)
worked a two-out walk and later scored when Laurie
Boland (Worcester, MA) reached on an error. Bryant
scored three times in the top of the fifth to take a 3-1 lead, but
SNHU got one back in the bottom of the frame when Karissa
Bettencourt (Norton, MA) led off the inning with a walk
and later scored on a sac fly by Andrea Clausi
(Kingston, NY).
Janine Enos earned the win for
Bryant, allowing just four hits in a complete game effort.
Ashley Bernstein (Stoughton, MA) took the loss for
SNHU.
In game two, the Bulldogs plated
two runs in the fifth and another in the seventh to take a 3-0
lead. The Penmen, who stranded eight runners in the nightcap,
plated their only run in the bottom of the seventh when a double by
Casey Stoodley (Salem, NH) doubled to score pinch
runner Arpin. Stoodley finished with three hits in the
nightcap.
Mary Bradford (Big
Bear, CA) scattered six hits and took the loss on the mound for the
Penmen.
SNHU returns to action Saturday
when it travels to Assumption College for a NE-10 doubleheader.
