JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (Softball) – The Lake-Sumter State College (LSSC) softball team traveled to Jackonville, Fla. Tuesday afternoon for a Sun-Lakes Conference matchup with Florida State College at Jacksonville (FSCJ). The Lakehawks took both games of the double header securing their third and fourth wins over the Blue Wave this season.

Game One – Lake-Sumter 7, FSCJ 5

After a five run seventh inning, the Lakehawks' come-from-behind effort secured a game one win over the Blue Wave.

FSCJ took a three-run lead in the bottom of the first after two walks followed by a homerun by Haley Bond. The BlueWave added runs in the fourth and fifth bringing their lead to 5-0.

The Lakehawks had their first hit and crossed the plate for the first time in the top of the sixth inning after Raquel Camuglia hit a double to score Molly Bender from second. Then with Emily Gable on third, Alexis Adams hit a ground ball to the opposite side to score their second run.

In the last chance at bat, the Lakehawks loaded the bases with one out in the top of the seventh. Bender blasted a double to left field scoring two bringing them within one run of the Blue Wave.

Camgulia stepped up next with another big hit, scoring two for the go-ahead runs. Kreighton Steinke added another run to the board with a single to right extending the lead 7-5.

Darian Pippin recorded the complete-game win on the mound improving to 12-5 on the season. Pippin allowed five runs on four hits with seven strikeouts.

Game Two – Lake-Sumter 3, FSCJ 2

Game two was a come-from-behind win for the Lakehawks as well.

The Blue Wave took an early lead in the bottom of the second inning after Haleigh Wright hit a two-run homerun but that was the last opportunity to score they had.

Bender blasted her eleventh homerun of the season in the top of the third to put Lake-Sumter on the board for the first time in game two.

In the top of the fourth, Makenzi Heaton and Alex Baez reached on singles and Desiree Romeo loaded the bases after reaching on an infield error. Then, Bender stepped up with a single up the middle to score Heaton.

With the bases still loaded, Camuglia drew a walk to score the go-ahead run.

Ali Shenefield recorded the win in game two improving her record to 13-1 on the season. Shenefield's 12 strikeouts brings her season total to 112, enough for a new single season record over the previous record of 109 held by Megan Holm (2010).

Camuglia's four RBIs on the day were enough to etch her name to the top of the single-season RBI category. She now has 58 just edging past previous RBI leader Bri Bennet (2017) with 56.

In both Sun-Lakes Conference matchups, Lake-Sumter went 4-0 against FSCJ to take the series for the season. Lake-Sumter improved to 37-15 overall and 9-3 in conference play while FSCJ moves to 16-19 overall and 4-8 in conference play.
