Recap by student-staff writer Colin Struckman 

WORCESTER, MASS. (4/21/2024) – The Franklin Pierce softball team came up empty in Worcester on Sunday afternoon against the Assumption Greyhounds, after they were swept in a Northeast-10 doubleheader.

Score: 
Game 1: Franklin Pierce 3, Assumption 6 
Game 2: Franklin Pierce 0, Assumption 2 
Records: Franklin Pierce (22-12, 8-7 NE-10), Assumption (19-13, 13-5 NE-10) 
Location: Worcester, Massachusetts 
Date: Sunday, April 21, 2024 
HOW IT HAPPENED: 

Game 1: 

  • The Greyhounds opened the scoring in the bottom of the 1st inning. Kaitlyn Cahill ripped a triple through the right side to give them the 1-0 lead. Then, Grace Heim smacked an RBI single to left field to put the Greyhounds in front 2-0 after 1.  
  • The Greyhounds continued to rake in the bottom of the 2nd. Lauren Geremia singled to left field and Kaitlyn Cahill scored on a fielder's choice to give them a comfortable 4-0 lead. Grace Heim then also scored on a fielder's choice bringing in 2 runs to put the Greyhounds ahead 6-0 after 2 innings.  
  • The Ravens broke through in the top of the 3rd inning. Charlit Hartenstein (Massapequa, N.Y.) started the inning off with a single to left center field. Then, Savannah Arreguin (Pacoima, Calif.) reached base on catcher's interference, moving Hartenstein to second. After back-to-back outs, Hailey Bigwood (Athol, Mass.) stepped up to the plate and she delivered, smoking a single through the left side, scoring Hartenstein and cutting the deficit to 6-1.  
  • The Ravens showed signs of life in the top of the 7th inning. Hailey Bigwood added another hit with a powerful triple to left center field. Ashley Cangiano (North Attleboro, Mass.) followed that up with a towering 2-run homer to left center field, cutting the Greyhounds leas to 6-3. The Ravens couldn't complete the miracle comeback and fell short to Assumption, 6-3 in the first game of the twin bill.  

Game 2: 

  • Just like the first game, the Greyhounds struck early against the Ravens. In the 2nd inning, Heather Junjulas opened the scoring with a sacrifice fly to left field, scoring Summer Sheerin for the 1-0 Greyhounds lead.  
  • The Greyhounds added on to their lead in the bottom of the 3rd inning as Kaitlyn Cahill clobbered a solo homer, putting them in front 2-0.  
  • The Ravens bats went quiet in game 2, getting shutout by the Greyhounds who recorded the sweep in conference play.  

NEXT FOR THE RAVENS: The Ravens return home for a double-header against their intra-state rival Saint Anselm on Wednesday (4/24).
