DeSales only won by two when they last took the field, which might have inspired the eight-point they dealt Columbia on Tuesday. The DeSales Irish blew past the Columbia Coyotes 12-4. With that win, DeSales brought their scoring average up to 7 runs per game.
Kate Dunham was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She didn't allow a single earned run and only one hit while striking out 14 over seven innings pitched. Dunham has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't tossed less than nine strikeouts in four consecutive pitching appearances. Dunham was also stellar in the batter's box, going 4-for-4 with a home run, two stolen bases, and three RBI.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Roslyn Block, who scored a run and stole two bases while going 1-for-2. Another player making a difference was Jeyten Strnadel, who scored two runs while going 2-for-4.
The victory was the third in a row for DeSales, bringing their record for this year to 4-1.
They will have a chance to go back-to-back against Columbia: the pair will be back at it again later today.
