SDSU POSTS PERFECT WEEKEND IN KANSAS CITY
3/28/2021 7:46:00 PM | Softball
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – South Dakota State received offensive production up and down its lineup and Jackrabbit pitchers Grace Glanzer and Tori Kniesche each turned in complete-game performances en route to a sweep of a Summit League softball doubleheader from Kansas City by scores of 6-2 and 7-2 Sunday afternoon at the Urban Youth Academy.
In earning a sweep of the four-game weekend series, SDSU improved to 19-4 overall and 4-0 in league play. The Roos dropped to 14-11 overall and 0-4 in The Summit League.
GAME 1: SDSU 6, KANSAS CITY 2
Eight of nine Jackrabbit starters recorded at least one hit as South Dakota State opened the day with a 6-2 victory, scoring in five of the seven innings.
Rozelyn Carrillo put the Jackrabbits on the board with a solo home run with two outs in the second inning and SDSU took the lead for good on Lindsey Culver's triple to the right-center gap that scored Jocelyn Carrillo.
The hit parade continued for SDSU in the ensuing innings as Allison Yoder delivered a run-scoring single in the fifth, Emma Osmundson recorded an RBI double in the sixth and freshman Tori Tollefson hit her first collegiate home run in the seventh.
That was more than enough offense for Jackrabbit hurler Grace Glanzer, who notched her second win of the series. The Sioux Falls native struck out three, walked one and scattered six hits in running her record to 8-2.
Lia Lombardini accounted for both Kansas City runs, plating a run in the third inning on an infield single and hitting a solo home run to lead off the Roos' sixth.
GAME 2: SDSU 7, KANSAS CITY 2
Culver drove in three runs and was one of four Jackrabbit players with a pair of hits. A returning freshman from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Culver opened the scoring in the top of the second inning with a single up the middle that scored both pinch-runner Millie Mueller and Yoder.
Culver later scored on a base hit by Rozelyn Carrillo to make it a three-run inning.
The Jackrabbit lead grew to 4-0 on a Culver sacrifice fly in the third inning.
Kansas City strung together a pair of two-out hits to get on the board in the home half of the third inning, but SDSU continued to answer the Kangaroos at every turn. The Jackrabbits added an unearned run in the fourth and Culver scored on a wild pitch in the fifth.
Ally Vonfeldt homered for the final Kansas City run in the sixth inning – her second home run of the series and seventh of the season.
Cheyanne Masterson closed out the scoring for SDSU with a run-scoring double in the seventh.
Besides Culver, Yoder, Kelsey Lenox and Jocelyn Carrillo each recorded two of SDSU's 12 hits.
Kniesche improved to 9-1 on the season in going the distance in the circle. The freshman right-hander struck out six and did not walk a batter.
UP NEXT
The Jackrabbits continue Summit League action with a pair of doubleheaders Friday and Saturday (April 2-3) at Western Illinois. Friday's twinbill is set for a noon start in Macomb, Illinois.
