Nationally-Ranked Seawolves Blast Dominican Wednesday

SAN RAFAEL, Calif. -- Jordann White recorded two doubles and brought in four runs and Jena Kaser went 3 for 5 with an RBI and two runs scored as the No. 19 Sonoma State softball team blew past Dominican 8-1 in non-conference action Wednesday afternoon at a cold and rainy Penguin Field in San Rafael. 

Game two of the scheduled doubleheader was halted due to rain in the top of the first inning after a two-RBI double by Kaser and a two-run home run by White, the first of her career, put the Seawolves up 4-0.  The two teams will finish the second game at another date and time yet to be determined.

Sonoma will now head north to Arcata to take on 13th-ranked Humboldt State Saturday and Sunday.

In game one, both teams would be held scoreless in the first three innings by SSU's Brielle Vidmar and Dominican's Ashlyn Moriarity, but that would change in the fourth.  The Seawolves put six runs up on the scoreboard in the top half of the fourth, starting with Olivia Lucchese's RBI single to left, scoring Kristine RicossaLeanna Georges followed with an RBI single through the right side to plate Sarah Langley, then Kaser came through with another RBI single to score Lucchese.  White then laced a bases-clearing double to center field to put Sonoma up big, 6-0.

The Penguins got a run back in their next at bat on a RBI double by Shannon Rodriguez, but that would be all Vidmar (1-0) would allow in her complete-game effort, earning her first collegiate victory in the circle.  Vidmar allowed five hits and three walks, striking out three.

The Seawolves weren't done on offense, however, as White brought home Kaser again on another double in the sixth inning, then Alison Strycula reached on a fielding error in the seventh which allowed Lindsey Calcany Blair to score for the Seawolves' eighth and final run of the game.
