SAINT ROSE STAYS HOT AGAINST AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL

ALBANY, N.Y. – The College of Saint Rose claimed a pair of Northeast-10 Conference victories against American International this afternoon at Cathy Haker Field, earning wins of 5-1 and 8-4 over the visiting Yellow Jackets.

Freshman right-hander Isabella Milazzo continued her stellar week in the circle for Saint Rose with a 7.0 inning, nine strikeout victory in the opener.

In the second game of the afternoon, senior shortstop Savanna Liverio-Tyler went 3-for-4 with four RBI, while freshman right hander Hannah Breen tallied a career-best 12 strikeouts to lead the Golden Knights (11-22/7-9 NE10) to the series sweep.

"We are playing some good softball right now and I believe our best softball is still ahead of us," said Head Coach Abby Arcenaux. "To come back and get two sweeps in a row after losing so many close games just shows the fight our group has. We are hungry for a trip to the postseason tournament and are taking it one pitch at a time."

In game one, the Golden Knights opened the scoreless contest in the fourth inning with a double to right field by Milazzo that brought home sophomore second basemen Alexandra Deeter and freshman designated player Abby Behrikis. Milazzo would come around to score two batters later on an RBI ground out by freshman catcher Ellen Fuda.

After the Yellow Jackets (3-23/1-11 NE10) gained a run back in the top half of the fifth, Saint Rose would score twice more in the bottom of the frame on run-scoring singles by sophomore pinch hitter Colette Cohen and junior left fielder Morgan Tyrrell to build the advantage to the winning margin of 5-1.

Game two saw Liverio-Tyler put Saint Rose ahead in the first inning with her first double of the finale, a rocket to the right center fielder gap that scored sophomore first baseman Madison Chandler.

Following a run by American International in the third, Liverio-Tyler fueled a Saint Rose rally in the bottom of the frame when she laced her second double of the game to bring around Tyrrell and Chandler. Milazzo and freshman left fielder Mattison Muller each knocked in runs as well for the Golden Knights in the four-run inning.

In the fourth inning, Liverio-Tyler doubled for the third time in the contest, sending a shot off the left field wall that scored Tyrrell and Chandler again. Following a pair runs by the Yellow Jackets in top of the fifth, the Golden Knights pushed the margin to 8-3 in the next half inning on an RBI triple by Tyrrell that plated sophomore center fielder Ciana Phillips from first base.

Tyrrell and Chandler combined to score five runs and Milazzo finished 2-for-3 at the plate in game two.

The Golden Knights return to action on Monday at home against Assumption after Saturday's twin-bill between the two squads was postponed due to weather. The re-scheduled doubleheader begins at 1:30 pm at Cathy Haker Field. American International next faces Adelphi at home in Springfield, Mass. on Monday.
Notes: Saint Rose has won four consecutive games for the first time since the 2012 season...Milazzo has struck out 17 batters while allowing only one earned run across her last 14.0 innings (0.64 ERA)...Phillips leads the Golden Knights in batting average (.333) and slugging percentage (.467), in addition to tying for third-best in the NE10 with 23 runs scored...Liverio-Tyler has hit a team-high three home runs while Chandler tops the lineup with 23 RBI...Breen leads the pitching staff with 81 strikeouts across 93.2 innings.
