SDSU BEGINS SUMMIT SLATE WITH SWEEP
3/27/2021 7:52:00 PM | Softball
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – South Dakota State carried its winning ways into its Summit League-opening doubleheader Saturday, sweeping a twinbill against Kansas City by scores of 6-1 and 4-3 at the Urban Youth Academy.
The Jackrabbits improved to 17-4 overall, while Kansas City dropped to 14-9 on the season.
GAME 1: SDSU 6, KANSAS CITY 1
South Dakota State scored four times in the third inning and Grace Glanzer continued to impress in the circle as the Jackrabbits prevailed in the opener, 6-1.
Peyton Daugherty started the third-inning outburst with a leadoff single and came around to score on a triple by Emma Osmundson. Osmundson came home on a single by Cylie Halvorson and Mia Elliott followed two batters later with a two-run homer to left.
Kansas City scored its lone run of the game in the home half of the third on an RBI single by Lia Lombardini. Glanzer, however, scattered three hits the rest of the way, striking out five and walking two in running her record to 7-2 on the season.
Osmundson, who went 3-for-4, added a run-scoring double in the fourth as she finished the game a home run shy of the cycle. Allison Beaudry capped the scoring with a solo home run to lead off the Jackrabbit seventh.
Daugherty, Allison Yoder and Jocelyn Carrillo each tallied two of the Jackrabbits' 12 hits.
GAME 2: SDSU 4, KANSAS CITY 3
Osmundson scored twice and Beaudry homered for the second consecutive game to lead the Jackrabbits to a 4-3 victory to finish off the doubleheader sweep.
SDSU struck for a pair of first-inning runs. Daugherty led off with a single, stole second and later scored on a wild pitch. Osmundson, who reached on a walk, came in with the second run of the inning on a single up the middle by Yoder.
Osmundson started a third-inning rally with a double and scored her second run of the game on a Cylie Halvorson single.
KC tallied a run on two hits in the home half of the third, but SDSU pushed its lead back to three runs on Beaudry's second solo home run of the day in the fifth.
The Roos drew to within a run in the sixth inning on a two-run homer by Ally Vonfeldt, but SDSU reliever Kendra Conard preserved the save by allowing only one baserunner the rest of the way.
Jackrabbit starter Tori Kniesche pitched the first four innings and was credited with her team-leading eighth win of the season. She struck out four, but worked around nine walks and a pair of hits.
Osmundson was 2-for-2 to lead the Jackrabbits' eight-hit effort.

The series concludes with a noon doubleheader Sunday.
