MIAMI SHORES, Fla. - Host Barry
University swept a softball doubleheader from Southern New
Hampshire University on Monday evening. The Buccaneers
recorded a walkoff 1-0 win in the opener, while posting an 8-0,
five inning victory in the nightcap. Barry improves to 20-9
overall, while the Penmen are now 2-6 on the season.
In the opener, SNHU pitchers
Kelsey
Griffin (Scarborough, ME) and Amanda Barton
(Franklin NH) carried a combined no-hitter into the seventh, with
Griffin working the first four innings and Barton the fifth and
sixth. The no-hit bid was broken up when Jessica Tabor led
off the frame with a single to left. Tabor would be lifted
for pinch runner Cassy Zamora, and Zamora would move to third on a
sacrifice bunt by Amanda Goelz. The next batter, Natalie
Heeley, singled to the left side to plate Zamora.
The Penmen would have just four
baserunners in the game, with none advancing past first.
Nicole
Arpin (Cheshire, CT) singled to lead off the sixth,
but she would be thrown out trying to steal second. The other
SNHU hits were singles by Melissa
Vitagliano (Bedford, NH) in the second and Ashley
Bernstein (Stoughton, MA) with one out in the seventh.
Griffin faced just one batter over
the minimum in three innings, walking one while also recording a
strikeout. Barton, who took the loss, worked 3.1 innings and
allowed two hits. Barry hurler Amber Jack struck out 12
without walking a batter in a complete-game victory.
In game two, the Penmen got just
one hit, a single by Melissa Loughran
(East Rockaway, NY) to lead off the third inning. The
Buccaneers got four runs in the second, one in the third and three
more in the fourth to invoke the run rule. Kyla Puccini (North
Dighton, MA) and Bernstein each pitched two innings.
Southern New Hampshire returns to
action Tuesday with a 2:00 doubleheader at Lynn.
