Kats sweep DH against Lamar
5/6/2022 9:06:00 PM | Softball
BEAUMONT — The Sam Houston softball team held Lamar to just one run in a Western Athletic Conference doubleheader sweep Friday at LU Softball Complex.
Â
The Bearkats won game one 2-1 and run-ruled the Cardinals 8-0 in the second contest to improve to 14-38 overall and 8-16Â in WAC play.
Â
Sam Houston got on the board right out of the gate. Kyndal Kutac hit a two-out single and came around to score when Kylie Hobbs ripped a triple into right center field.
Â
The Bearkats scored again in the third inning after Kutac reached on an infield single to short. Brailey Wasik brought her home with a long single off the wall in left field.
Â
That was all starter Regan Dunn needed. She tossed six shutout innings with four strikeouts before giving up a run in the seventh.
Â
Mika Vento picked up the save, her third of the season.
Â
Like game one, Sam Houston was the first to strike in the nightcap.
Â
Wasik drew a lead-off walk and scored when Ellie Grill laced a single into right center field. Schaeffer followed with a single to left to make it 2-0.
Â
The Bearkats broke the game open with three runs in the fourth inning.
Â
Emily Telg led off the frame with a walk and moved to second when Sheridan Fisher poked a single into right field. Kutac made it 3-0 with an RBI single, and Hobbs blasted a two-run double down the left field line.
Â
Grill was hit by a pitch to begin the inning, and Schaeffer pushed a single through the left side. Telg dropped down a sacrifice bunt to move the runners over, and Fisher made it 4-0 with a sacrifice fly to center.
Â
Brodie Quinlan and Kutac hit back-to-back RBI singles to help Sam Houston win via the run-rule.
Â
Vento tossed five scoreless innings, holding the Cardinals to only four hits while striking out six to earn her fifth win of the season.
Â
The teams will close the regular season with a single game Saturday at noon.
