Lady Spartans Sweep Broome

The Lady Spartans were able to find two wins yesterday as they faced the Lady Hornets of Broome Community College.  With the Spartans leading 8-1 going into the 7^th inning a few errors and mental lapse ended up putting Broome up a run.  With bases loaded and 2 outs sophomore catcher Nina Kowal (Auburn, NY) hit a ball right down the left field line hitting in the game winning runs ending the game 10-9.  Stefanie Mitchell (Onondaga, NY) pitched another outstanding game striking out 12 in the first game. 

The second game was much of the same for the Spartans, scoring 3 runs in the 2^nd inning Broome answered back with 2 runs in the 3^rd inning, only up 1 run the Spartans were able to tack on 3 more runs in the 4^th inning.  Broome was able to get 2 more runs in the 4^th and 6^th inning.  With the score 6-4 going into the 7^th inning the Spartans were unable to secure some insurance runs, however with good pitch selection Mitchell was able to strike out 3 of the last 5 batters for the win.  Both Mitchell and Danielle Vuillemot (Auburn, NY) went 2 for 4, and Mitchell ended the 2 games with a total of 22 strikeouts.  The Spartans look to continue their winning ways this weekend where they face Erie Community College on Saturday and then Genesee Community College on Sunday.
