Baseball

The baseball team continued its hot play this week, easily defeating host MacMurray College on Wednesday, 15-4. The win was the 7th straight for the Red and Green who upped their overall record to 19-4 on the year. Wash. U. is currently ranked 17th in the nation. On Tuesday, the Bears defeated Maryville College, 5-2, on Kelly Field. Senior workhorse Andy Shields picked up his sixth win on the mound.

Softball

The softball team easily swept a doubleheader on the road against Greenville College on Wednesday. The afternoon was highlighted yet again by the masterful pitching performance of senior Laurel Sagartz, who tossed the school’s fourth ever perfect game. The veteran hurler struck out 11 Greenville hitters in the first half of the twin bill, which was cut short two innings due to the mercy rule. The Lady Bears won 17-0. In the second game, Wash. U. pounded out 15 hits en route to a 6-1 win.
