PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Junior
Gabby Bellamore smacked her first two collegiate home runs to lift the JWU (Providence) softball team to its second-straight Conference of New England (CNE) sweep, this one coming against the University of New England Tuesday evening at the Scotts Miracle-Gro Athletic Complex.
Game One: Wildcats 14, Nor'easters 1 (5 in.)
Bellamore belted a three-run home run in the second and a solo shot in the third as the Wildcats rolled to a game one win. Senior
Mady Lyons laced a pair of doubles and drove in three while first-year
Ashley Bergeron launched a two-run home run and also ripped an RBI double. Sophomore
Morgan Pelletier hit her seventh home run of the season and plated two runs, which was more than enough run support for senior starter
Jillian Reed. The Burlington, New Jersey native allowed four hits and one run with three walks and two punchouts to earn her 10th win of the season.
Game Two: Wildcats 13, Nor'easters 5 (5 inn.)
Senior
Jadyn Torres popped her second home run of the season and drove in two as JWU rallied from a 3-0 deficit to score eight in the third and even its conference record at 7-7. Pelletier and first-year
Hailey Cardiello each smoked two-run singles, and junior
Jessica Forneiro finished with two hits, including an infield RBI single. Junior
Brianna Ghilardi recorded her second win of the season and classmate
Madi Wong tossed two scoreless innings of relief.
