Sparkill, N.Y. - Senior Sarah Clancy threw her second straight shutout to carry St. Thomas Aquinas College to a 4-0 win over visiting Post University today in the first game of a non-conference softball doubleheader at Spartan Field. Post won the second game, 8-3, in eight innings.
Clancy, a righthander, allowed just four hits while recording eight strikeouts to win her sixth straight start. Named this week's East Coast Conference Pitcher of the Week, Clancy now owns a 13-9 record and leads the ECC in wins, saves and strikeouts.
Pacing the offense in the win were Eliana Raposo and freshmen Jessica Feerick. Feerick plated the team's first run with a third-inning single to drive home teammate Amanda Demmerle. The Spartans broke open the game with three runs in the sixth inning on Raposo's RBI single and Olivia Leon's two-run base hit. Demmerle (left field) and Aliya Feerick (right field) supported Clancy with good glove work.
