MEDIA RELEASE
The University of Hawaii at Hilo delivered early knockout blows as they TKOed Dominican University twice in a Pacific West Conference doubleheader on the UHH Softball Field.
With the 8-0 and 14-0 victories, the Vulcans improved to 10-5 overall and 6-4 in the PacWest while the Lady Penguins are 1-6 overall and 1-3 in the PacWest.
Amber Waracka tossed a no-hitter in the shortened first game and allowed only one runner to reach base. She struckout eight over the five innings while walking one.
Sierra Green and Kanani Numata led the way with three hits each while Nicole Alconcel added two hits and a pair of RBI.
The Vulcans racked up 13 hits in the second game with Alconcel and Green picking up three hits each. Amanda Tellez and Aisha Sueda added two hits each while Tellez picked up a homerun and four RBI while Sueda had two RBI. Numata added a homerun.
Christina Pedroza got the start in the second game and gave up two hits and two walks over five innings while striking out two.
“The team did very well hitting from the get go,” said UHH head coach Gwen Kagaoan. “Christina’s outing was very encouraging for us.
“Hopefully she can build on this and do her job tomorrow. She’s been struggling and this outing is definitely a confidence builder for her.”
