BULLDOGS EXTEND WIN STREAK TO  EIGHT

MANCHESTER, N.H. - Junior Lindsay Connor (West Haven, CT) went a combined 5-for-7 with three RBI to lead Bryant University to a doubleheader sweep of The Southern New Hampshire University here today in Northeast-10 Conference softball action. Bryant, which has now won 18 of its last 20 games, improved to 21-13 overall and 19-3 in the league.

Bryant got two solid pitching efforts from sophomore Janine Enos (Wareham, MA) and junior Nikki Ingalls (Westford, MA). Enos scattered seven hits and fanned seven in game one, while Ingalls allowed just two hits in games two, which was called after five innings.

Bryant opened the scoring in game one in the top of the second when sophomore Jessica Valentini (Cliffside Park, NJ) reached on an error and later scored following a double to left field by freshman Kate Thomas (Bedford, NH). SNHU answered with a run in the bottom of the second. Freshman Ashley Bernstein walked to leadoff the inning and scored on a single by junior Sandra Lawton. The scored remained 1-1 until the top of the fifth when the Bulldogs got two runs off three hits. A two-run single by Valentini plated both of the runs. The Penmen cut the lead to 3-2 in the bottom of the sixth after Bernstein singled and later scored following a bases-loaded walk, but Enos retired the hosts in order in the seventh to secure the win. 

Bryant got a two-run homerun from junior Amanda Wilbur (Lakeville, MA) in the top of the first in game two, and took a 4-0 lead in the third following back-to-back RBI singles by sophomore Vicci Duane (West Haven, CT) and Thomas.  The Bulldogs secured the win with four runs off two hits in the fifth. A bases-loaded double to left center by Connor plated three of the runs.  Bryant had 10 hits in the nightcap. Connor went 3-for-3 with three RBI, while Thomas 2-for-3 with two RBI. 

The Bulldogs return to action tomorrow April 26 when they will host UMass Lowell at 3:00pm.
