Southern New Hampshire University softball swept a Northeast 10 doubleheader from Bentley University on Wednesday afternoon, earning a 4-0 victory in the opener before walking off with a 5-4 win in Game 2.  Junior Julianna Colbert (Burrillville, R.I.) led the way in the circle in Game 1, while junior Kaysie DeMoura (Taunton, Mass.) delivered the decisive hit in the nightcap.

GAME 1 HIGHLIGHTS
  • Colbert was dominant in the opener, tossing a four-hit shutout as the Penmen earned a 4-0 victory.
  • The junior right-hander struck out 10 and allowed just one walk, keeping Bentley off the board throughout.
  • SNHU broke through in the second inning when freshman Payton Bryson (Franklin, N.H.) drew a bases-loaded walk to score the game's first run.
  • The Penmen added two runs in the third inning on a two-run double by junior Mikaya Alto (Chelmsford, Mass.) to extend the lead to 3-0.
  • SNHU tacked on an insurance run in the fifth inning when sophomore Julia Parise (East Meadow, N.Y.) drew a bases-loaded walk.
  • Alto led the offense with two hits and two RBIs, while Bryson added an RBI and scored a run.
GAME 2 HIGHLIGHTS
  • The Penmen rallied late to earn a 5-4 walk-off victory in Game 2.
  • Bentley jumped out to a 3-0 lead through three innings before SNHU got on the board in the third on an RBI double by senior Peyton Feldman (Foxboro, Mass.).
  • The Penmen continued to chip away, pulling within 3-2 in the fifth on a sacrifice fly by DeMoura before Bentley added a run in the sixth on a home run by Jess Morrison to make it 4-2.
  • In the bottom of the seventh, Parise and Bryson started the inning with singles, and sophomore Alyssa Abbott (Hudson, N.H.) reached on an infield single to load the bases. Feldman then drew a bases-loaded walk to bring in a run before DeMoura delivered a two-run single to right field to walk it off.
  • Sophomore Kayla O'Boyle (Commack, N.Y.) followed freshman Sophie Roussel (Goffstown, N.H.) in the circle to earn the win.  
NOTES
  • Colbert improved to 9-3 on the season with her second consecutive complete-game shutout in Game 1, while O'Boyle improved to 2-2.
  • Bentley leads the all-time series 47-46 but the Penmen have won the last three contests.
  • Five different players drove in runs in the doubleheader led by DeMoura with three.
UP NEXT
  • The Penmen will travel to Post University for a non-conference doubleheader on Thursday.
  • SNHU will return home this weekend to host Assumption University in a Northeast 10 series.
