Sasso Posts Pair of No Hitters; Panther Bats Erupt in Skyline Twin Bill

BRONX, N.Y. – Purchase softball carved up a doubleheader sweep of Yeshiva University, 14-0 and 19-0, in Skyline Conference action late Sunday night at Bahoshy Field.

Senior ace Tara Sasso (North Rockland, NY) pitched her career-first pair of no-hitters to lead the Panthers.  She recorded a two-game total of 16 strikeouts, including 10 in the opener, and five walks.  Sasso fanned the final two Maccabees in the fifth to close out game one and stayed hot for the shortened nightcap, recording another six strikeouts for the win. 

Eight Panthers combined for 31 hits—averaging .508 as a team—across the two games.  Brianna Palermo (SR/Hyde Park, NY) paced the lineup, batting an impressive .875 (7-for-8), including two triples and one double with three RBI and five runs scored. 

Alexandria Perez (SR/Bronx, NY) and Rebecca Bronzi (SO/Lagrangeville, NY) were next in line, both finishing the day with a notable 5-for-7 (.714) performance and combining for 11 RBI. Malena Santia (FR/Rye, NY) notched a team-best four doubles, averaging .625 with five hits on eight trips to the plate. 

Jade D'Errico (JR/Wantagh, NY) recorded three hits (.375), including a pair of doubles. Sasso (.333) went 2-for-6 with two RBI and three runs, while Kelly Jennings (FR/Yorktown Heights, NY) tallied one hit, three RBI and three hit by pitches.   

The Panthers will look to build off Sunday's wins, when Purchase returns to action Thursday on the road against non-conference Mitchell College. First pitch is slated for 3 p.m.
