Springfield, Mo. – SBU Softball continued their hot streak Saturday, defeating Lincoln in their first game 7-3 and Northeastern in their second game 5-3. The Bearcats improve to 5-11 (0-0 GLVC) on the year.
 
Game One
The Bearcats played as the home team in this matchup against Lincoln. The first four Bearcats drew walks, bringing home a run to take a 1-0 early lead. SBU broke the game open in the third inning, starting with back-to-back singles from Megan Schellert and Morgan McMullin. Aubry Hernandez loaded the bases with a walk. A sacrifice fly brought home Schellert to make the score 2-0. A couple more walks and a hit-by-pitch scored two more runs, followed by another sacrifice fly to make the score 5-0. The Blue Tigers made a bit of a rally in the 6th inning, scoring 3 runs. Aubry Hernandez responded and extended the SBU lead with a 2-run homerun in their half of the 6th, ending the game 7-3.
 
Aubry Hernandez finished the game 1-2 with 3 RBIs, 2 runs scored, and 2 walks. Megan Schellert and Morgan McMullin each had 2 hits as well. Maddie Massanelli pitched the full game, giving up 0 earned runs on 6 hits with 4 strikeouts.
 
Game Two
Playing as the home team again, the Bearcats jumped to a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first. A walk by Sam Moran, a single by Megan Schellert, and back-to-back fielder's choices scored the first run of the game. With two outs in the 2nd inning, Paige St. Pierre came around to score on an error by the catcher. After a walk, Aubry Hernandez drove in two more runs to make the score 4-0 SBU. The game flew by until the 5th inning where NSU put 1 run on the board. They scored again in the 6th, but the Bearcats responded. Megan Schellert drove in Taryn Elia on a sacrifice fly to make the score 5-2. The Riverhawks scored once more, but SBU closed out the game 5-3.
 
Sam Moran was perfect at the plate, going 3-3 with a walk. Megan Schellert also had 2 hits in the victory. Aubry Hernandez picked up another 3 RBIs, ending the day with 6 RBIs. The win was credited to Reilly Rupert, pitching all 7.0 innings with 3 strikeouts.
