NAPLES, Fla. - For the second straight day, a Bethany College softball record has fallen by the wayside.
Graduate Destiny Goodnight recorded a pair of stolen bases, the first being her record breaking 62 nd of her career, as the Bison remained unbeaten on its spring break trip with a pair of victories.
GAME ONE: BETHANY 13, ALFRED STATE 12
In this high-scoring affair, the tying run was stranded in scoring position after Alfred scored five runs in the bottom of the seventh inning.
Bethany took control of the contest with 10 total runs, five each in the fourth and fifth innings, to take the 13-7 lead. The Pioneers claimed their first lead (5-1) of the game with five runs in the bottom of the first inning.
Both teams scored in the second with Bethany crossing the plate twice and Alfred State once.
Junior Brooke Markland was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and a team-high four RBI, while Goodnight was 3-for-5 with two runs scored and an RBI. Graduate Morgan Huey, freshman Amber Dedmon, and freshman Olivia Kidd all drove in two runs.
Junior Katelyn Ziems (1-0) allowed seven runs, five earned, on 10 hits over four innings with three strikeouts.
GAME TWO: BETHANY 5, WESTFIELD 1
Bethany took advantage of some wildness and miscues in the fifth inning to claim the non-conference victory.
Back-to-back hit batters and an error loaded the bases with one out. Markland picked up an RBI the hard way becoming the third batter to get hit in the inning. Senior Haley Eyler drove home a run, and then two more runs scored on an error. When the dust settled in the fifth, Bethany had scored four runs on just one hit and led 5-1.
Freshman Bella Juozapaitis registered the first multi-hit game of her career, going 2-for-3 with a double.
Fifth year Josie Wise (4-0) earned the victory, allowing just one run on five hits with four strikeouts.
Bethany (6-0) wll have a day off before returning to action Tuesday, playing Lesley (9 a.m.) and Potsdam (11 a.m.).
