JORI WILKENDORF – SOFTBALL

Jori Wilkendorf (Livermore, Calif./Livermore) was dominant in the circle, tossing her fourth collegiate no-hitter in a win over Sarah Lawrence. The outing marked her first solo no-hitter and came just one hit-by-pitch shy of a perfect game. Wilkendorf retired the first 14 batters she faced before issuing a hit-by-pitch with two outs in the final inning, then regrouped to secure the no-hitter with her eighth strikeout of the game.

She followed that outing with another strong performance at home against St. Joseph's Brooklyn, allowing just three singles while holding all runners to second base or less. Wilkendorf added three strikeouts in the effort, improving to 10-3 on the season while lowering her ERA to 1.89.
