SOFTBALL SWEEPS SAINT ROSE, 6-0, 7-1, IN NE-10 ROAD ACTION

Rotterdam, N.Y. - Senior pitcher Jennifer Farrelly (Latham, N.Y./Shaker) threw a one-hitter in game one and homered in game two to lead Le Moyne College to a doubleheader sweep of Saint Rose on Thursday night at Esposito Field. The Dolphins shut out the Golden Knights, 6-0, in game and won game two, 7-1.

The Dolphins opened the scoring in game one on a solo home run by junior second baseman Kelly Schweikert (Rochester, N.Y./Spencerport) in the first inning. The Dolphins added to their lead with a pair of runs in the third inning. Freshman first baseman Leah Ford (Pulaski, N.Y./Pulaski) led off the frame with her second career home run. Following a pair of outs, Schweikert walked and then stole second base. Farrelly followed with a double to drive in Schweikert.

Le Moyne doubled its lead with two runs in the sixth and a single run in the seventh. Farrelly opened the sixth with a double to left center and moved to third on a sacrifice bunt. Following a groundout and a walk to freshman designated player Kelcie Cashel (Lacona, N.Y./Sandy Creek), freshman pinch-hitter Amanda Mosich (Penn Yan, N.Y./Penn Yan Academy) doubled to left center to knock in Farrelly and Cashel. In the seventh, junior center fielder Danielle VanGorder (Vestal, N.Y./Vestal) singled and freshman shortstop Barbara Shea (Clifton Park, N.Y./Shenendehowa) doubled to left center to open the inning. Schweikert followed with a sac fly to drive in VanGorder to cap the game's scoring.

Farrelly, the Northeast-10 and ECAC player and pitcher of the year, struck out three batters, while allowing just one hit and two walks in her fifth shutout and 10th complete game of the season.

In the nightcap, the Dolphins got on the scoreboard with two runs on a hit and an error in the first inning. VanGorder led off the game with a single to right field and moved to second as Shea reached on an error. After a sac bunt and Farrelly was hit by a pitch to load the bases, senior third baseman Caitlin O'Neill (Pittsford, N.Y./Our Lady of Mercy) was walked to force in VanGorder. Sophomore catcher Kimberlee Baker (Murrieta, Calif./Murrieta Valley) recorded a sac fly to drive in Shea. The Golden Knights got one run back in the bottom half of the frame on two hits. Megan Rios tripled and scored three batters later on a single by Amanda Morano.

The Dolphins regained their two-run advantage in the third on a home run by O'Neill. Le Moyne pushed out to a 7-1 lead with a run in the fifth, two in the sixth and one in the seventh. Farrelly double to left with two outs in the fifth. O'Neill reached on an error and Farrelly came around to score on a second error. Sophomore right fielder Amanda Daum (Auburn, N.Y./Auburn) and Ford singled each singled with one out in the sixth. Following a fielder's choice by VanGorder, Shea singled to drive in Daum and VanGorder. Farrelly capped the scoring in the seventh with her fourth home run in the last four games.

Sophomore righty Jenna Vanacore (Hicksville, N.Y./Holy Trinity) struck out eight batters in five innings pitched to register her 10th victory of the season. Classmate Katelyn Fowler (Sandy Creek, N.Y./Sandy Creek) tossed the final two innings to preserve the victory.

Le Moyne (21-7, 9-1), which has won five consecutive games, returns to action at home on Saturday against Saint Michael's at 12:00 p.m.
