On the same day,

Junior softball star
Kelly Mascari hammered a school-record four home runs during a 13-1 rout of Skaneateles after going homerless during the first eight games of the season. In addition, she drove in 10 runs, which also is believed to be a school record.
Meanwhile, baseball pitcher
Alex Godzak was at his very best as he fired a no-hitter and struck out 15 during a 1-0 victory over Skaneateles. The Canisius recruit, who walked only three, also singled in the game's lone run during the sixth inning.
*Another softball player,
Bre Cuff of
Landrum (S.C.), slammed three home runs and drove in seven runs during a 10-0 rout of Ware Shoals (S.C.). All three were long blasts to dead center field.
