Taylor Light allowed only two baserunners to reach third while limiting Greece Athena to three hits while also driving in three runs at the plate to lead Brockport to a 13-0 shutout in girls softball.
The Blue Devils jumped out to a 4-0 lead in their half of the first inning as Brooke Falsion reached on an infield single and stole second. After a walk to Anna Fisher, Light smashed a double to left-center to drive in two runs, went to third on the throw home and scored on an error. Colby Jones continued the rally with a walk, went to third on an infield out and scored on an RBI single to right by Mara Santos.
Brockport plated three more runs in the second as Jasibel Claudio reached on an error and stole second and third before scoring on a triple by Fisher. Light drove in Fisher with a single and later scored on an infield single off the third baseman’s leg by Olyvia Zinkiewich.
It stayed 7-0 Blue Devils until the fifth inning when Larissa VanDetta reached on an infield single and took second on an error. Claudio singled her in and, after a single by Falsion and a force play and stolen base, Jones drove in two runs with a single. She took third on the throw home before Zinkiewich drove her in with a single to right-center to make it 11-0.
In the sixth, VanDetta scored on an error and Claudio, who had earlier singled, was driven in on a fielder’s choice RBI by Falsion for the final run.
Light, heading to the University of Buffalo this fall to play softball, limited the Trojans to three hits, walked two and hit one batter while striking out 12 to earn the win – the tenth of the season for Brockport against just two losses.
