WORCESTER, Mass. – The Dartmouth softball team powered past Holy Cross, 11-2, in six innings on Wednesday afternoon at Freshman Field.
Dartmouth struck first in the opening inning and continued to build momentum throughout the game. Lauren Ben-Ezra tripled, then later scored when Faby Serna was caught stealing, to give the Big Green a 1-0 lead.
Serna played a huge role in Dartmouth's breakaway, hitting a two-run homer to center field in the third inning and a solo home run in the fifth to bring the lead to 4-0.
The Big Green exploded in the sixth inning, extending their lead by six runs. Scarlett Nagy got the scoring started with an RBI single, followed by a two-RBI single by Ben-Ezra, who would later score on a passed ball. Ava Davis drove in a pinch-hit RBI single before Hayvin Barclay made it an 11-0 game with an RBI double.
In the bottom of the sixth, Holy Cross pushed across two runs in the bottom of the sixth, but Dartmouth's offense had already built a commanding lead to take the run-rule victory. In the circle, Isabel Kirby earned the win after pitching 5.2 scoreless innings, allowing just two hits while striking out four.
The Big Green will return to Hanover this weekend to host Cornell for Eight Against Hate weekend, opening the weekend with a doubleheader on Saturday and concluding competition on Sunday at 12:30 p.m.
