Caputo halts Lebanon Valley as Blue Jays split with Dutchmen

ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa. -- Junior Tori Caputo came on in game one to throw 4.1 innings of solid relief and helped the Elizabethtown College softball team get the game one win over Lebanon Valley. The Dutchmen came back to win game two and get the split with the Blue Jays. Ashley Mistichelli hit her second home run of the season in game one.

GAME 1: ELIZABETHTOWN 9, LEBANON VALLEY 5
Lebanon Valley (21-10) went ahead in the top half of the first, but the lead didn't last long as Mistichelli put the Jays in front with her two-run homer over the left field fence.

The Dutchmen rallied in the third for four runs to retake the lead at 5-2, but Elizabethtown (14-20) responded in their home half of the third.

Amelia Lark doubled home Kadyn Crisswell and Mistichelli. Megan Thomas followed that up with an RBI base hit through the right side to score Ashley Judd, who was on to pinch run. That tied the game at 5-5.

Caputo, who came on in the top of the third to record the final out, did not allow LVC to score another run the rest of the way.

Crisswell gave her the lead in the fourth with her RBI triple to right center. The freshman went 3-for-3 at the plate with two runs scored and an RBI.

Etown added some insurance runs in the sixth to increase the 6-5 lead to 9-5. Courtney Fitzsimons singled in Crisswell to make it 7-5. Grace Hussey drew a bases loaded walk that took it to 8-5. Gillian Toomey scored on a wild pitch to get it to 9-5.

Lebanon Valley had a runner in scoring position in the seventh, but with two outs, Anna Marie Hockman fouled out to Kaitlyn Witmer at first to end the game.

GAME 2: LEBANON VALLEY 9, ELIZABETHTOWN 4
The Dutchmen did their damage early in game two, taking a 9-1 lead by the third inning. Cierra Kunkle drove in the Jays' lone run in the early going with an RBI single.

Crisswell drove her second triple of the day to right center to score Witmer and Kristen Aydelotte in the fifth. Toomey had a pinch-hit ground out to third to bring in Crisswell to make it 9-4, but that's as close as Elizabethtown would get.

Jordan Walter threw a complete game for the Dutchmen to earn her 12th win of the year. 

Crisswell went 2-for-3 in game two to finish the day 5-for-6 with two triples and three RBIs.

The Blue Jays will host Juniata on Wednesday, April 27, at 3 and 5 p.m.
