Caldwell Softball Sweeps Felician to Extend Streak to 11

LYNDHURST, N.J. – The Caldwell University softball team defeated Felician College, 2-1 and 10-6 to sweep a Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference doubleheader Monday afternoon at Matera Field. The results give the Cougars an 11-game winning streak, improving their record to 17-9 overall and 11-1 in the conference. The Golden Falcons drop to 9-16, 6-8 CACC.

Caldwell scored the first runs of Game 1 in the fourth inning. Sophomore Amy Hickman (Jackson, NJ/Jackson Liberty) singled to score junior Katelyn Biasi (Blackwood, NJ/Sterling), and a sacrifice fly from sophomore Lauren Frye (Jupiter, FL/Jupiter) plated Hickman for a 2-0 lead. Felician scored a run on an RBI single by Jackie Duenas in the sixth that made the score 2-1. But junior pitcher Amber Padilla (Chino, CA/Pomona Catholic) retired the final four batters to close out the win.

Padilla went the distance, allowing one run on four hits while striking out four and walking two to improve to 10-3. Hickman went 2-for-2 at the plate for the Cougars.

Senior Alyssa Calderon (Fontana, CA/Etiwanda) got things started in Game 2 with an RBI double that scored senior Kristen Knorr (Monroeville, NJ/Delsea) in the top of the first. After Felician scored twice in the bottom of the first to lead 2-1, Caldwell pushed six runs across for a commanding 7-2 advantage. Five of the runs were scored on two dropped fly balls, while freshman Kiahna Silva (Etiwanda, CA/Etiwanda) singled home freshman Kortney Craker (San Marcos, CA/Mission Hills). The Golden Falcons came back with three runs in the bottom of the fourth to make the score 7-5. But the Cougars scored single runs in each of the final three innings to put the game out of reach.

Calderon went 2-for-2 with a double, a run and three RBIs, while Craker and juniors Brielle Reighn (Runnemeade, NJ/Triton Reg.) and Caitlin McCready (Jupiter, FL/Dwyer) each had two hits. Sophomore Sydney Ponto (West Deptford, NJ/West Deptford) pitched 5 2/3 innings to improve to 6-4 on the season.

The Cougars play a CACC doubleheader at Bloomfield College on Tuesday, Apr. 14, beginning at 3:00 p.m. at Clark's Pond in Bloomfield, N.J.
