Wow, what a performance! I'm starting to like the way we are winning the conference championships lately. How many do we have now, 6? Last year we had 9? First place in the WAC for baseball too.
RECORDS FALL EVERYWHERE AS SOFTBALL POUNDS VIKING PITCHING FOR 25 RUNS AND 37 HITS IN DOUBLEHEADER SWEEP
4/13/2008
SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Junior Jamie Schloredt went a combined 7-for-7 with two home runs and nine RBIs to lead a Sacramento State offensive attack that tallied 25 runs and 37 hits in a Pacific Coast Softball Conference doubleheader sweep of Portland State on Sunday afternoon at Shea Stadium. The Hornets erased a six-run deficit to win the first game, 13-7, before taking the nightcap, 12-3.
In the doubleheader, Sacramento State’s offense hit a combined .507 (37-for-73) with nine doubles, four home runs, 24 RBIs, a .554 on-base percentage and a .795 slugging percentage. The Hornets set program single-game records for most hits (19 in the first game), most doubles (7 in the first game), most combined runs in a doubleheader (25) and most combined hits in a doubleheader (37). In fact, the Hornets had 19 hits in the first game and 18 more in the second game, while the previous school record for hits in a contest was 16.
Schloredt, a junior catcher from Woodland, Calif., hit everything in sight, finishing 7-for-7 with four runs, three doubles, two home runs, nine RBIs, two intentional walks, a sacrifice fly and a 2.286 slugging percentage. Junior Izmena Cabrera finished the doubleheader 6-for-9 (.667) with two doubles, one home run and seven RBIs, and her team-leading 37 RBIs are just five shy of the school single-season record of 42 (a mark set by Schloredt last season). In all, six different Hornets hit better than .425 during the doubleheader, comprised of Schloredt, Cabrera, Whitney Loomis (1.000, 5-for-5), Kayla Meeks (.556), Hilary Johnson (.500) and Jenice Bartee (.429).
Meeks (11-6) picked up wins in both contests, going the distance in the first game, and pitching 2.2 strong innings of relief in the second game.
With the sweep, Sacramento State (24-15, 6-2) won three of four games from Portland State, and now sits all alone in first place in the PCSC standings. The Vikings dropped to second place in the league standings, and now sit at 22-20 overall and 5-3 in the league.
