Ladies take two from Pioneers

MARIETTA, Ohio -- In a Sunday non-conference doubleheader at Marietta College, the Kenyon College softball team ran its season record to 20-8 after sweeping the host Pioneers. In game one, the Ladies chalked up a 9-7 win and then followed that up with a 5-0 victory. 

In the game-one win, Kenyon was propelled by a six-run second inning that included just one hit. The first three Ladies to the plate in that inning drew walks. Nicole Bishay was then hit by a pitch and Clare McMahon drew another walk to plate the first two Kenyon runs of the day. A Marietta error followed and allowed one more Kenyon run to score. Grace Finn then ripped a single to give the Ladies a 4-1 lead. A wild pitch scored McMahon and a ground out from Emily Buckwalter scored Maddie Friday, who pushed the Kenyon lead to 6-1.

Marietta scored twice in the third inning off Kenyon starter Emily Pater, but Pater got one of those runs back in the fifth inning, smacking an RBI groundout.

The Pioneers kept after Pater, however, and scored three more times in the bottom of the fifth inning, leaving Kenyon clinging to a 7-6 edge.

In the top of the sixth, with two out, Kenyon tacked on a couple insurance runs. Finn got things going with a walk. Sara Campagna doubled and Buckwalter did the same, plating both Finn and Campagna.

Pater stayed in the circle to close things out. She got into a jam in the bottom of the seventh, but worked her way out of it to secure the win. In her seven innings of work she struck out two and yielded 13 hits and a walk.

In game two, Bishay and Marietta's Amelia Timko were locked in a pitchers' duel through five innings. In the top of the sixth, however, the Kenyon offense tagged Timko for five runs.

McMahon opened the big inning with a one-out double. Olivia Hurley drew a walk and Friday singled to score McMahon. Finn then singled up the middle to score two more Kenyon runs. Later in the inning, Bella Albrecht singled home Finn and Natalya Delsante closed out the scoring with a sacrifice fly to right field.

That was all the scoring in game two and it was more than enough for Bishay. She threw all seven innings for Kenyon and allowed just three hits. She fanned three and didn't walk a batter. 

Over the course of the twinbill, Albrecht and Finn both had three hits and both scored two runs. Finn also had three RBI. Friday and McMahon both had two hits and scored twice. Buckwalter added two hits and matched Finn's mark with three RBI.

The Ladies return to conference competition Tuesday with a doubleheader at The College of Wooster.
