Scolese and Stinchcomb Homer in Sweep Over Lycoming to Start Landmark Play

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – The Catholic softball team traveled to Williamsport, Pa. to take on Lycoming in its Landmark opener. Not only did the Cardinals boast a solid lineup, they also only allowed two runs on the day with a 10-1 and 8-1 win.

GAME ONE - Catholic 10, Lycoming 1

The Cardinals surged early, scoring two runs in the opening half. Sam Grillo and Olivia Stinchcomb earned walks with early patience. With two runners on, Katie McHugh sent them scoring with a two RBI triple. 

With Aubrynn Arcement in the circle for the Cardinals, Catholic made quick work of Warrior offense in the bottom of the first. 

Catholic continued to show its offensive prowess in the top of the second. Elise Faxon started the inning off with a double. With the bases loaded, thanks to Grillo and Gabrielle Nanni, Geneva Webber sent a ball to the right field wall collecting a double and two RBIs in the process. Stinchcomb sent another two runs in with a single up the middle, giving Catholic an early 6-0 lead. Katie Scolese moved the lead up to 8-0 with a two-run bomb. 

Lycoming pushed one run across in the bottom of the second in an attempt to cut down the Catholic lead. Warriors' Sage Smeltz scored on a ground ball to right side from Kristen George. 

Both squads remained scoreless through the fifth. Catholic continued to stack runs in the top of the sixth. Katie McHugh tripled to once again get the offense grooving, scoring off of a sacrifice fly from Scolese. Faxon collected her first RBI of the day with a ball up the middle, moving the Catholic lead to double digits. 

Morrigan Gardiner came in to pitch for the Cardinals in the bottom of the sixth, hoping to shut down the Warriors. Gardiner and the Catholic defense closed out game one with a lineout, groundout, and a strikeout. With that, Catholic secured its first Landmark win of the season 10 to 1.


GAME TWO - Catholic 8, Lycoming 1

Grillo started off hot, sending the first pitch Lycoming's Isabelle Engel out to left field for a single. Stinchcomb sent her fourth home run of the season over the left field over the wall, giving Catholic the early 2-0 lead once again. 

Sophia Colangelo earned the game two start for the Cardinals and, with the help of the defense, kept the Warriors scoreless in the first. 

Kerri Hatcliffe hit a leadoff single in the top of the second. Gianna Samperi followed it up with an RBI double to right field. Grillo continued her impressive day with a triple, scoring Hatcliffe and Samperi and doubling the Cardinal lead.

Catholic and Lycoming were unable to score, despite putting runners on base through the sixth inning. 

Catholic doubled its runs in the top of the seventh, gaining some insurance. Grillo and Webber hit back to back singles in the top of the seventh, scoring when Stinchcomb tripled out to center. McHugh and Scolese hit back-to-back RBI doubles to give Catholic the 8-1 lead. 

In the bottom of the seventh, Colangelo remained on the mound and produced three outs in the air to secure the sweep.

Inside the Box Score:
  • Sam Grillo went 4-for-6 in today's matchup against the Greyhounds, highlighted by a triple in game two. Elise Faxon went 4-for-7 with three doubles. Kerri Hatcliffe had a notable second game, going 2-for-2. 
  • The Cardinals had a total of 13 extra base hits in today's Landmark sweep. Scolese and Stinchcomb are now tied for the team lead with four home runs apiece on the season after they both sent one over today.
