STOCKTON, Calif. — BYU softball extended its win streak to 12 games with a pair of shutout victories over Pacific on Friday evening at Bill Simoni Field. With the 3-0 and 10-0 wins over Tigers, the Cougars improved to 37-10 overall and 9-2 in West Coast Conference play.
GAME ONE
Game Highlights
- Senior HannahJo Peterson hit her first home run of the season, taking her season RBI total to 18.
- All of BYU’s runs were from home runs.
- Autumn Moffat-Korth pitched a complete game shutout with five strikeouts
The Cougars stranded two runners in the top of the first inning but BYU’s starting pitcher Autumn Moffat-Korth followed by striking out her first two batters, keeping the game scoreless after the first inning.
A lead-off solo shot by HannahJo Peterson ensued the first run of the game for either team. In the top of the third inning, Peterson got her first homer of the season, sending the ball past right field for a 1-0 BYU lead.
BYU would increase its lead to 3-0 in the top of the fifth inning. HannahJo Peterson was hit by a pitch and Martha Epenesa hit a sacrifice bunt for her teammate to advance to second. Next, Taylei Williams hit a two-run home run to left field for her third homer of the season.
The Tigers got a base hit by their designated player Nina Davis, but a 5-4-3 double play by BYU would lead to a ground out for Kyla Eck, ending the fifth inning at 3-0. Pacific entered a new pitcher Hannah Glad in the circle at the top of the sixth, allowing just one hit and zero runs.
