Cards Complete Series Sweep Against Syracuse
April 17, 2022 | Softball
LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The University of Louisville softball team defeated Syracuse 3-2 to complete a series sweep Sunday at Ulmer Stadium.
Dylann Cravens went 2-for-3 with a run and an RBI to lead the Cardinals at the plate. Taylor Roby (13-6) tossed a complete game, allowing two unearned runs on five hits and striking out three. The right-handed pitcher finished the series with a pair of complete game wins and a save.
Louisville (24-17, 8-7 ACC) jumped to a 2-0 lead in the first inning. Carmyn Greenwood drew a leadoff walk and eventually scored on Kendall Smith's RBI single. Hannah File was hit by a pitch and a wild pitch moved both runners into scoring position to set up Cravens' RBI hit.
The Orange (20-18, 3-13) countered with a pair of unearned runs in the second. Geana Torres led off the frame with a hit and a Louisville miscue allowed Olivia Pess to reach. Two outs later, Angel Jasso's two-run single evened the score.
The game stayed knotted at 2-2 until the fourth inning when Cravens beat the throw for a bunt single and Vanessa Miller followed with a hit. Ally Alexander's fielder's choice put runners on the corners and a wild pitch sent Cravens home to put the Cards on top 3-2.
Kaia Oliver (1-4) took the loss, allowing one earned run on three hits and striking out two in five innings of relief.
The Cardinals will continue ACC play next weekend when they travel to Blacksburg, Va., to face No. 2/3 Virginia Tech in a three-game series.
