Rebels Swept 9-1, 8-0, San Diego State Cancelled

PROVO -- After waiting for three hours due to an April snowstorm, the BYU Cougars (25-8, 3-1) swept UNLV 16-25 (2-4), 9-1, 8-0 at Gail Miller Field, Thursday. BYU has now won 16 of its last 17 games. The San Diego State game scheduled for Friday has been cancelled.

In the first inning of game one with two outs, BYU hit three singles to load the bases. Freshman Ashlyn Russell hit a grand slam, the first of her career and her fifth home run of the season, to give the Cougars a quick 4-0 cushion. Sophomore Lauren Watson, senior Brooke Cadiente and freshman Ianeta Lei scored on the homer over right center field.

"My parents came up from Maui to watch me play this week and I wanted them to see me hit," Russell said of the home run.

UNLV loaded the bases in the second inning and scored a run as Lisa Moses hit an RBI single to score Jackie Kerrigan.

In the bottom of the fourth inning, Russell, sophomore catcher Arron Layns, and Debbie Dodds drew walks. Sophomore Katy Barnes pinch ran for Russell and was brought home by a single from sophomore Milli Jones. All-American Oli Keohohou doubled down the right field line to clear the bases. Keohohou was brought home by a single from Watson to end the game in five innings, 9-1.

Freshman Brooke Boyce (7-1) picked up the win in three innings on the mound allowing only one hit in relief for senior Cynthia Fallowfield, who started and struck out five in the first two innings. Jackie Kerrigan (13-10) picked up the loss in four innings.

In the second game of the doubleheader, Oli Keohohou led off with a walk in the first and advanced to third on sacrifices. She was brought home by a single up the middle from senior Brooke Cadiente.

In the third inning, Keohohou hit her 14th home run of the season, a blast over the centerfield fence, and her first conference dinger of the 2003 season for a 2-0 lead.

Junior shortstop Kate Walker hit a 3 RBI double to clear the bases in the fourth inning as the Cougars took a 5-0 lead. Junior Belinda Osborn, Dodds, and Keohohou, who was intentionally walked to load the bases, scored.

Debbie Dodds brought home Lei in the fifth to increase the lead to 6-0 on an RBI single.

In the sixth inning, Watson singled to score Keohohou, who reached on a walk. Cadiente scored the final run off an RBI single to score Walker and end the game 8-0 in six innings.

Freshman Brooke Boyce (8-1) picked up her second win on the day with the shutout allowing only four hits while striking out three Rebels. UNLV's Becky McDonald dropped to 1-11 on the season.

"Boyce is incredible," head coach Gordon Eakin said of the freshman's performance. "If you can't see the fight in her eye, you don't know athletic competition."

"She pitches with an attitude," pitching coach Vaughn Alvey said.

The doubleheader schedule for Friday against league-leading San Diego State has been cancelled due to the snow received in Provo and Salt Lake, Thursday. BYU next home games are MWC doubleheaders against New Mexico and Colorado State April 25-26.
