Pair of Victories in Vegas

LAS -- Lady luck proved to be on BYU's side as the Cougars swept their final two games beating Cal-State Fullerton, 5-2 and Kansas, 2-1 at the Louisville Slugger Desert Classic.

While BYU (8-2) jumped on the Titans early to get its win in game won, it took some late-inning good fortune to get past the Jayhawks.

The Cougars head coach Gordon Eakin said BYU played good in cold conditions.

"These were two really nice games against two really good teams in tough conditions," he said.

In the first game, BYU jumped out of the gates early getting three runs in the first and two in the second. Ianeta Le`i and Andrea Ramirez came up with a pair of two-out doubles in the first. Ramirez' two-bagger drove in two runs. Tracee Hoch capped off the inning with a RBI single of her own.

Fullerton scored early as well, getting an early two-run home run off Cougars' starter Summer Tobias. Tobias settled down after the homer and didn't give up any more runs, pitching a complete game for the win.

BYU came right back in the second when Le`i nailed a two-runner home run of her own to put the Cougars ahead for good.

"We played great against Cal-State Fullerton," Eakin said. "We got big hits in scoring situations."

Pitching dominated game two with Daniella Urincho holding Kansas to only one run on five hits in a complete game win. Urincho struck out seven while only walking two batters.

"Dani [Urincho] pitched a heckuva game for us," Eakin said. "So did [Kansas pitcher] Settlemier, she kept us off balance most of the night."

The Cougars finally got to the Jayhawks' hurler in the bottom of the seventh. After Emi Snow came up with a RBI ground out to tie the game a one in the seventh, Ashlyn Russell came up with a game-winning RBI.

BYU will next play in the Crowne Plaza Classic in Houston beginning next Thursday against Houston.
