3/18/2021 11:35:00 AM

ROLLA, MO- After winning three of their last four games, the Miners will look to continue the winning streak when they travel to Rockhurst and Southwest Baptist this weekend.

S&T took an early 5-0 lead in their second game against William Jewell on Tuesday and would use that lead to their advantage.

Jewell would score their lone run of the game off an S&T error in the top of the 6th inning to cut their deficit to 5-1. The Miners would earn the run back in the bottom half of the inning when Bryn Wooldridge (Salisbury, Mo./Salisbury) slapped a ball up the middle and brought Elizabeth Viox (Glen Carbon, Ill./Edwardsville) and Maddy Passolano (Mokena, Ill./Lockport Township) around make it a 7-1 game, and eventual win.

Rockhurst (8-4, 3-1 GLVC) is coming off a split to Drury on Tuesday that saw the Hawks get three runs off 10 hits in their second game of the day. After a solo shot to center field from Gallagher gave Rockhurst the 2-0 lead, Drury answered right back in the bottom of the 4th inning with a homerun from Sneed to cut their lead in half.

Calli Wibbenmeyer would secure the win for RU in the top of the 5th inning when she doubled and brought Emily Clark around to score for the 3-1 lead. Drury would be held to just one hit for the rest of the game and the Hawks would claim the 3-1 win.

For the season, Shelby Winkelman has been the strong bat for the Hawks with a .514 batting average with 19 hits in 37 at-bats while Emily Clark is hitting a solid .447 with 17 hits, two of them being homeruns.

Lexie Storrer has been the Hawks go-to in the circle collecting a 6-1 record and a 0.52 ERA in 40.2 innings of work.

Southwest Baptist (1-11, 0-2 GLVC) is coming off back-to-back losses to Rockhurst last week that saw them get outscored 10-0 over the two-game span.

For the season, Renae Gilmore and Nicole Horstman are the only hitters to have played in all 12 games for the Bearcats this season, collecting a combined 17 hits. SBU has gotten two homeruns from Morgan McMullin an one from Kaitlyn Bagby while Alyssa Reed is leading the team with a .263 batting average.

In the pitcher's circle, Hallie Henderson, Emma Wood, and Reilly Rupert have split time for the Bearcats with Henderson leading the way with a 3.14 ERA and 20 strikeouts in seven appearances.
