Clarkson Softball Sweeps RIT, 4-0 and 3-2

Rochester, NY – Senior Olivia Zoeller won the opener, picked up the save in game two, and homered as the Clarkson University Softball team swept a doubleheader from RIT with 4-0 and 3-2 victories on the road on Saturday afternoon.

The Golden Knights jumped back above .500 to move to 13-12 overall and 4-5 in the Liberty League while the Tigers fell to 5-19 and 0-8. Clarkson will take on University of Rochester on Sunday afternoon to close out the conference weekend.

In the opener, Olivia Zoeller mowed through the RIT lineup, striking out 11 hitters and giving up just two hits with no walks through six innings of work. Clarkson got on the scoreboard to support Zoeller in fourth inning with a solo run, as Kayla Robert led off with a triple to right and then scored on a Zoey Kovach single to put the Knights on top 1-0. Zoeller helped her own cause with a solo home run in the fifth, hitting one down the left field line. Clarkson did tack on two more runs in the inning as Kayla Robert doubled in Sam Short, and then Robert scored on an error for the fourth run.

Zoeller, Robert, Kovach, Maddie Brink, and Bridget Twaits each had two hits and Zoeller earned her sixth win.

In game two, the Golden Knights tallied two in the top of the first to jump out to an early lead. Zoeller singled to shortstop, Short followed with a single to put runners on the corners and then a fly out down the left field line in foul territory allowed Zoeller to score. Kovach singled in Short for Clarkson's second run.

RIT got the runs back in the fourth as Alexis Smith doubled in a run and Erin Ozminkowski singled in another.

In the top of the seventh, Clarkson scored the go-ahead run. Maddie Brink led off with a single and was lifted for pinch runner Katy Aldous. Riley Page reached on a fielder's choice as Aldous was safe at second, and Becky Kennedy-Titsworth singled to load the bases with no one out. Bridget Twaits then grounded into a double play, but that was enough to score Aldous and give the Knights a 3-2 lead.

Zoeller came on in relief and tossed a scoreless seventh to end the game and earn the save.

Devin Fitzpatrick started the contest and threw four innings before being relieved by Page, who ended up with the win for the Knights. Lexi Pieri took the loss for RIT, throwing all seven innings and giving up seven hits with three strikeouts and no walks.
