The good and the bad.

So on the good side, we swept Drew this past weekend. Both of our pitchers pitched shut outs, meaning the other did not score in either game. On the bad side, we earned a split against Scranton. We are now 9-1 in the conference and 26-6 overall. Moravian is also 9-1 in the conference so the number 1 seed is going to be determined this weekend when we play Moravian. Below are pictures from the past 4 games.

Today is our senior day, games against Lebanon Valley. Stay tuned to see how we do today and this weekend.

Rain, rain and more rain.

This week we only had two games and we won both, improving our record to 21-5. The games were against Wilkes. Our other double header was supposed to be against conference opponent, Drew, but because of the rain, those games had to be postponed. Our field is never going to be dry, and there is even more rain in the forecast. We are going to have a lot of games in the upcoming weeks.

We might have to play these games on Easter Monday, but I really hope we don't because that means we will get no Easter break at all. We are supposed to have two conference double headers this upcoming week against Juniata and Scranton. Drew's games might be in there too so we are going to have to work hard this week to a playoff bid which we are close to being 4-0 in conference play thus far.

11 in a row, but nothing lasts forever.

The SU softball team suffered its first loss in 11 games on monday against Elizabethtown. We won the first game 3-0 due to a rally in the 6th inning which scored 3 runs. We lost the second game 5-4 , dispite a last effort in the 7th inning where we scored 2 runs to come within one but it just wasn't enough. I think it is a good thing that we lost. Last year we had a win streak of 19 games and when we lost we did not know what to do. So I think losing will make us better in the end. We have a double header against Wilkes today and one against Drew on Saturday. Stay tuned to see how we bounce back.

make that 10 in a row.

Today, the SU softball team improved its record to 18-4 and increased its win streak to 10 with a two game sweep of Gettysburg. We only won the first game 1-0 even though we had eight hits through out that game. Our bats really came alive in the second game which we won 7-2. Our ace pitcher, Cara Swerdlow broke some records today. She tossed a four-hit shutout and in the process became Susquehanna’s all-time winningest pitcher as she now has 45 victories over her four-year career. Below is a picture of her after the game with our head coach.

Congrats Cara!

Stayed tuned for next weeks double headers against Elizabethtown, Wilkes and Drew. 

8 in a row!

We have won 8 games in a row and improved our record to 16-4 with a conference sweep of Cathloic this past weekend. We won the games 6-4 and 3-0. We hope to be on the NCAA Top 25 list soon and these wins definantly helped.

This week we have games on Wednesday and Thursday. They are against Miseracordia and Gettysburg, both teams are not in our conference. They will still be good games. Go SU!
