Softball Splits With Fisher

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (April 11, 2015) – Stevens Institute of Technology softball sophomore Jessica Rees belted a 13th inning home run Saturday to give the Ducks a 3-1 road win over St. John Fisher College, but the Cardinals came back in game two with a 6-1 win.
 
The split moved Stevens to 14-6-1 while Fisher moved to 15-5.
 
Stevens 3, Fisher 1
 
The Duck put runners on in the first and fourth innings but were unable to get any to score. Fisher mounted its own rallies in the first and second before pushing across an unearned run in the fourth off an error at third.
 
Stevens was unable to answer in the fifth, but did finally break-through in the sixth. After senior Jamie DeGennaro and sophomore Jessica Rees hit back-to-back singles to start the inning, sophomore Kelly Klewicki ripped a single to left to plate one.
 
Senior pitcher Kayla Berardi kept the game knotted in the bottom of the inning after working out of a bases loaded, one out situation before working around a lead-off single in the seventh.
 
Both team traded zeroes over the next five innings until Rees broke the deadlock with a two run homer run in the 13th. Fisher put runners on second and third in their half of the inning, but Berardi induced a fly ball out to center to clinch the win.
 
Berardi went the distance, striking out eight without surrendering an earned run while Rees' homer was her third in as many games.
 
Fisher 6, Stevens 1
 
After trading zeroes through the first inning, Fisher got on the board with four in the second. The Ducks answered however in the third after junior Gavriella Risman-Jones singled home freshman Corinne Loncar who had led off the inning with an infield single.
 
The Cardinals got the run back in their half of the inning off an RBI single, and held the lead with scoreless innings in the fourth and fifth.
 
Fisher added one more in their half of the fifth to make it 6-1 before working around a one out walk in the sixth to maintain the lead.
 
Stevens rallied in the seventh with runners at first and second and nobody out, but a triple play off the bat of freshman Farryl Groder sealed the Fisher win.
 
Freshman Olivia Gemma surrendered just two earned runs in six innings of work while Risman-Jones had the Ducks lone RBI.

The Ducks will continue their Empire 8 Conference road trip tomorrow with a doubleheader against Nazareth College starting at 1 p.m.
