Abington, Pa.: The SUNY Cobleskill women’s softball team made their first trip to Pennsylvania on Saturday blanking a North Eastern Athletic Conference (NEAC) doubleheader with the Nittany Lions of Penn State Abington taking the first game 3-1 then losing the second game by a 12-0 margin. With the split the Fighting Tigers move to 2-6 overall on the season with a 2-2 mark in league action while the Nittany Lions are now 2-10 overall with a 1-1 record in league action.
In the opener Fighting Tiger freshman pitcher Rachel Hall, Greenwich, N.Y., Greenwich High School, limited the home team to only two hits over seven innings allowing only one earned run by striking out one and walking no one while featuring a formidable sinker which accounted for 13 ground ball outs in the game.
Trailing 1-0 in the top of the third inning Cobleskill score a pair of runs on a fielder’s choice by senior third baseman Hannah Hoffman, Troy, N.Y., Averill Park High School, and a sacrifice fly by junior shortstop Nicole Flint, Union Springs, N.Y., Cato-Meridian High School/Monroe Community College, to take a 2-1 lead from which they never looked back.
Hoffman led the way from Cobleskill offensively going 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI while sophomore center fielder Brianna Murphy, Yonkers, N.Y., Yonkers Montessori Academy, who was 1-for-2 with a walk a stolen base and a run scored.
In the nightcap the Fighting Tigers could never get on track as the Nittany Lions cruised to a 12-0 victory allowing the visitors only one hit in the contest as junior catcher Gabriella Danthine, Sloansville, N.Y., Schoharie High School, had a third inning double as part of a 1-for-1 effort to break-up the Nittany Lions no-hit effort.
