Game 1
Game 2

NAMPA, Idaho - Simon Fraser University swept a pair of GNAC softball games this afternoon at Halle Field, defeating the Crusaders 9-2 and 1-0.

Simon Fraser's Cara Lukawesky improved to 7-2 in the circle in game one, holding the Crusaders to four hits and a pair of first-inning runs.

NNU's Emily Renfrow had two of the four Crusader hits and both Arielle Chao and Chelsea Allsbrook each had one.

The Crusaders (3-9, 3-5 GNAC) answered SFU's first inning run by plating two in the bottom half on a Allsbrook RBI single that scored Cara Duckworth and a wild pitch by Lukawesky that allowed Renfrow home.  Duckworth walked to lead off the rally and Renfrow had reached with a bunt single.

SFU (11-4, 7-3 GNAC) responded with four in the second and it was all Simon Fraser after that.  Carly Lepoutre led the Clan with a 4 for 5 effort and Leah Riske finished 2 for 2 with a pair of RBI's.

Game two would see SFU score the game-winner in the first inning as Trisha Bouchard singled, stole second and scored on Kelsey Haberl's RBI single.

The Clan's Kelsie Hawkins (4-2) tossed a complete-game five-hitter at the Crusaders and Haberl finished 3 for 4.  Bouchard and Rosie Murphy had two hits each.

Arielle Chao had two hits for NNU and the trio of Duckworth, Renfrow and Baylee Jolliffe each had one.

NNU left nine total runners on base, including six in scoring position in game two.

Duckworth (2-5) took the loss in the opener and Anderson (1-4) fell in the nightcap.

The teams will return for twinbill tomorrow at Noon.
