@OW_Panthers Softball sweeps Yeshiva in home opener

Old Westbury scored 32 runs behind solid pitching performances in Friday’s Skyline Conference doubleheader

OLD WESTBURY, NY --- (www.OLDWESTBURYPANTHERS.com) SUNY Old Westbury softball (2-2, 2-2 Skyline) opened their home schedule Friday with convincing 24-0 and 8-0 Skyline Conference run-rule wins to sweep the Yeshiva University Maccabees (2-4, 0-2 Skyline) from Jackie Robinson Athletic Complex.
 
Game 1 (5 Inn.): Old Westbury 24, Yeshiva 0
Samantha Scharff (2-for-5, 5 RBI, 2 R, SB) scored Gabriella Valdes (3-for-3, 3 RBI, 3 R, 2 BB, SB) in the first inning with a single off Maccabee pitcher Elisa Alweis (L, 1-2; 4 IP, 24 R, 15 ER, 9 BB, 0 K)) to break the scoring ice.  Joshlyn Grant then doubled Old Westbury's advantage with a single to plate home Scharff.  Four batters later, Kaite Skelly stroked a RBI single to score Grant as Old Westbury scored five runs over the next four at-bats to take an 8-0 lead.
 
Lauren Bloom (2-for-4, 4 RBI, R, 2 2B) capped an 11-run inning in Old Westbury's second with a two-run double for the 19-0 lead.
 
Old Westbury scored three more runs in the third inning before Amanda Neenan (3-for-4, 4 R, 3 RBI, 2 BB) helped her own cause with a two-run home run over the right field fence to score Krysta Flareau (3-for-5, 4 R, RBI, SB) to settle the 24-0 final.   
 
Neenan (W, 1-0, 2 BB) made her debut in the circle with eight strikeouts while scattering two hits to register the five-inning complete game shutout.
 
Game 2 (5 Inn.): Old Westbury 8, Yeshiva 0
Old Westbury broke a scoreless tie in the second with Flareau's RBI single to plate home Bloom for the 1-0 lead on Maccabee starter Samantha Cohen (L, 1-2; 4.2 IP, 11 H, 8 R, 6 ER, 2 BB, K).  Two batters later, Synthia Betances doubled Old Westbury's advantage with a RBI single to score Grant (2-for-3, 2 R).  Madelyn Bowen then made it a 4-0 game with a two-run ground rule double two batters later, before Otilia Bernal (2-for-2)  scored the Panthers' fifth run on a fielding error by third baseman Gabi Chutter.

Skelly and Valdes (2-for-2) provided RBI singles in the third to make it a 7-0 game. 

Scharff hit a two-out walk-off double in the fifth to score Bowen for the game's eighth run.
