Shinstine spins gem to lead Softball in Skyline sweep at Mount Saint Mary

NEWBURGH, N.Y. – The Manhattanville College softball team snapped the Mount Saint Mary College Knights (11-5, 9-4 Skyline) six-game winning streak Saturday afternoon with 11-0 and 10-1 Skyline Conference victories from MSMC Baseball/Softball Complex in Newburgh, New York. With the wins, the Valiants (9-2, 6-2 Skyline) extend their winning streak to eight games.

Game 1: Manhattanville 11, Mount Saint Mary 0
Valiant Top Performers
Amaya Esparza: 3-for-4, one run scored, three RBI, double, home run (second-career)
Sarah Harker: 3-for-3, three runs scored, RBI, two walks, double
Jayleen Torres: 2-for-4, two runs scored, one walk, stolen base
Giovanna Liggett: 2-for-5, one run, two RBI
Charli Shinstine: 7.0 innings, three hits, one walk, career-best 17 strikeouts

Key Moments
  • After a scoreless opening two innings, Manhattanville broke through by scoring two unearned runs to claim the early 2-0 lead. Isela Casillas (Chula Vista, Calif./Eastlake), who scored the game-winning run, and Jayleen Torres (Bellflower, Calif./Downey) both touched home plate off a throwing error by Knight starter Bridget Morris.
  • The Valiants padded their lead with back-to-back home runs in the fifth inning. With Sarah Harker (Irvine, Calif./Irvine) sitting on first base, Amaya Esparza cracked a two-out homer over the right center field fence. Kylie Pester (Spokane, Wash./Lewis and Clark) followed by launching her first-career home run over the center field fence to extend Manhattanville's lead to five, 5-0.
  • Holding a 7-0 lead heading into the seventh inning, Manhattanville tacked on four runs highlighted by Casillas. Casillas extended her hitting streak to 10 games with a leadoff single and scored two batters later off Harker's single.
  • Charli Shinstine (Encinitas, Calif./San Dieguito Academy) fired three-straight of her career-best 17 strikeouts in the seventh to settle the 11-0 final. She scattered three hits to earn her third-career complete game shutout and fourth win of the season. With her impressive 17 K's, Shinstine now holds the program's single-game record in strikeouts, eclipsing Candice D'Andrea who had 13 strikeouts against Maritime College on April 11, 2001.
