Penn State DuBois Softball split yesterday against Hazleton on the road.  DuBois came back home today to host Hazleton in another PSUAC East Division double header.  Hazleton leads the East division by one game over DuBois coming into the games today.

DuBois saw Lizzy Scott starting in the circle today at Heindl Field.  Scott's hitters were behind her to start the game, scoring 3 runs in the 2^nd inning.  Hazleton would find their way onto the bases, but the DuBois defense kept making the big plays to end the innings.  DuBois would score another run in the 3^rd, and 2 more in the 4^th to go up, 6-0.

Hazleton came back with a rally in the 6^th, scoring 5 runs, but with another strong hold of defensive plays Scott and the defense held on for the win, 6-5. 

Scott pitched the complete game, giving up 9 hits, and striking out 8 batters.  Cierra O'Shell added a triple, and the team totaled 4 stolen bases.

Game two saw Brooke Harvey in the circle for DuBois as they were looking for the sweep on the day.  DuBois bats picked up early again in this game with a quick 2 runs in the bottom of the 1^st inning.  Harvey and Aspen Bishop each scored in the inning, but those would be the last runs that DuBois would score.

Another all out defensive effort would keep the Hazleton bats quiet, but in the top of the 4^th would get another rally going.  DuBois would keep it to only 1 run though, and keep the lead, 2-1.  That would be the final score as DuBois would sweep the day, and take sole possession of 1^st place in the PSUAC East Division.
