Ladies tack on two more, move to 9-1

FORT MYERS, Fla. -- With two more wins Friday, the Kenyon College Ladies softball team ran its win streak to five games and boosted its record to 9-1. The Ladies defeated Western Connecticut State University, 7-1, in the first game and then sank SUNY-Delhi, 16-0, in the second game.

Against Western Connecticut State, senior Nicole Bishay kept her pitching record unblemished. She threw all seven innings, gave up just five hits, struck out three and allowed just one walk. That performance improved her season record to 5-0. She also lowered her season earned run average to 1.06 in 33 innings of work.

The Kenyon bats gave Bishay all the support she needed in the top of the first inning. Grace Finn started out the game by drawing a walk. Two batters later, Emily Buckwalter blasted a home run over the left field fence for her second dinger in as many days. Bella Albrecht also drew a walk in the first inning and later came around to score, giving Kenyon a 3-0 lead.

Western Connecticut State got one run off Bishay in the bottom of the first, but that was all the Colonials would get.

The Kenyon offense got back to work in the fourth and fifth innings. In the fourth, Maddie Friday walked, which was one of six walks for the Ladies in game one. Friday later stole second base and came around to score on a single from Sara Campagna. In the fifth, the Ladies capitalized on two Colonial errors to score two more runs. 

Junior Nicole Archambeau, who scored one of those Kenyon runs in the fifth inning, had a 3-for-4 showing at the plate. 

Archambeau, and the rest of the Ladies offensive attack, remained hot against SUNY-Delhi in the second game of the day, which was cut short after five innings due to the run-rule. In that contest, Archambeau went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and four RBI. Her two-game total stat line was a 5-for-7 performance that included three runs scored and the four game-two RBI.

Kenyon scored six runs in the first inning against SUNY-Delhi and then scored seven in the third inning and three more in the fourth.

Buckwalter and Clare McMahon also had two hits apiece in game two. Buckwalter was 2-for-2 with two runs scored and two RBI. McMahon was 2-for-3 with two runs scored and one RBI. 

Finn drew four walks in game two, tying a program record, and finished the day with two hits, five walks, four runs scored and a couple of stolen bases. Her five walks were part of a dozen free passes for the Ladies throughout the two-game set.

As a team, the Ladies hit .368 (21-of-57) on Friday. Through their first 10 games, they have a .362 team batting average.

By the third inning of game two, most of the Kenyon starters went to the bench, allowing the reserves to get two innings of game time.

Senior Emily Pater was the Ladies' starting pitcher against SUNY-Delhi. She worked three innings, gave up one hit, one walk and struck out one. Classmate Tori Rogers pitched the fourth and first-year Amanda Harris pitched the fifth inning. Neither allowed a hit or walk.

The Ladies are back at it tomorrow with a game against Albion College at 11 a.m. followed by a game against SUNY-Brockport.
