10-Game Winning Streak Snapped For Fisher Softball

The nationally-ranked St. John Fisher College softball program split its doubleheader on Wednesday at University of Rochester.   Fisher won the first game 3-1, but lost the second game, 1-0.   The loss snaps a 10-game winning streak for the Cardinals (12-4).  During that run, Fisher outscored the opposition, 76-3.  Fisher, currently ranked No. 21 in the latest NFCA poll, will return to action at 1 p.m. on Saturday at Rochester Institute of Technology.

Game One: Fisher 3, Rochester 1



Fisher never trailed in the game, jumping out to a 1-0 lead in the first inning, as Jennifer Vanek scored on an RBI-single from Sarah Fordyce.  The Cardinals added two runs in the sixth to preserve the win.  Freshman Lindsey Holtz doubled in a run, scoring pinch runner Michelle Townsend.  Junior pitcher Danielle Leone moved to 7-1 on the year.  She scattered six hits and struck out six over seven innings.

Game Two: Rochester 1, Fisher 0


The Cardinals collected only three hits in the game.  Pitcher Sarah Stefanon took the tough-luck loss.  The junior allowed just two hits all game, but a leadoff double in the bottom of the seventh accounted for the game's only run after Fisher committed two errors in the inning.
