\n\tManhattan put two runners in scoring position in the opening frame after a passed ball advanced both Samantha Kelly<\/a> and Brianna Estevez<\/a>, but two consecutive putouts kept the visitors scoreless.
\n\tAfter loading the bases, the Red Storm scored two off a two-out single to get off to an early edge.\u00a0
\n\tKendall Penny<\/a> led off the second inning with a double, and after advancing to third on a flyout, she later took advantage of a wild pitch to put the Green and White on the board.\u00a0
\n\tLater on in the third, St. John’s scored five runs off of four hits, highlighted by two RBI singles to stretch out their lead to six runs.\u00a0
\n\tMore pressure was applied in the home half of the fourth, loading the bases with one out. However, starter Sophia Kiseloski<\/a> generated a foul and groundout\u00a0to keep the scoreboard where it was.\u00a0
\n\tWith two outs in the top of the fifth, Natalye DeBus<\/a> reached base on an error in left field, scoring Estevez for the second Jasper run of the afternoon.
\n\tFollowing a two-RBI triple in the fifth, the offense became too much for Manhattan to overcome, tallying one hit across the final two frames.\u00a0
<\/p>\n
\n\tFour Jaspers each secured one hit on the afternoon, in Sophomore utility player Brianna Estevez<\/a>, Freshman catcher Kendall Penny<\/a>, and Freshman infielders Caitlin Gaetani<\/a> and Sophia Hannappel<\/a>.\u00a0
\n\tFreshman utility player Natalye DeBus<\/a>\u00a0put together the best performance in the pitching circle, going the final 1.1 innings allowing no earned runs or hits, and striking out one on 18 pitches.\u00a0
