After nearly two weeks off due to weather, the St. John Fisher College softball team returned to action on Wednesday as the Cardinals swept the visiting Keuka College storm, 6-2 and 8-1.  The Cardinals are now 10-4 on the year, while Keuka slips to 1-5.

BOX SCORE - GAME 1

In the opening game of the doubleheader, both teams exchanged zeroes until Fisher was able to break the scoreless tie in the home-half of the third inning.  Kate Disbrow reached on an error and promptly stole second base.  After two quick outs, Lauren Owens stepped to the plate and lined a single, scoring Disbrow from second in the process.  Fisher would tack on another run in the inning when Jessica D'Angelo boomed an RBI double down the right field line to score Owens.

The lead would be short-lived, however, as the Storm would tie the game in the fourth at two runs apiece after blasting a two-run homer that cleared the right field fence.

The Cardinals would add to their lead in the bottom half of the inning, scoring four more runs on three hits with the big blow coming off the bat of Meghan Burns as the junior launched a two-run double to regain the lead, which Fisher would not relinquish.

Halie Schoff held Keuka scoreless over the next three innings to pick up her fifth win of the season.  The Lee Center native pitched seven innings and allowed two runs on four hits while striking out eight.

BOX SCORE- GAME 2

In the nightcap, Fisher found itself trailing 1-0 after an error allowed Keuka to plate a run, but the Cardinals would recover in the third inning.  After a lead-off single by Disbrow, Jennifer Knaak singled through the left side of the infield, plating Disbrow.  Two batters later, D'Angelo belted a two-run home run to give Fisher a 3-1 lead.

The Cardinals would pour it on in the fourth inning when Megan Keib ripped a double before Jessie Smyrski knocked her in with an RBI single to right field.  After a fly out, Burns stepped to the plate and smashed a towering two-run shot to put Fisher up 6-1.  Fisher wasn't done there as Knaak collected her second single of the game and would score Fisher's seventh run after a Keuka error.

In the bottom of the fifth, Fisher would score its eighth and final run on a moon shot from Samantha Poules – her first home run of the season.

The Cardinals will return to the diamond at 3 p.m. on Thursday for a doubleheader at R.I.T.
