Boston College Cruises to Third Straight Win
March 17, 2021 | Softball
Eagles roll past UMass Lowell 9-1
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Junior pitcher Peyton Schnackenberg won her first career game at Boston College as the Eagles rolled to a 9-1 victory over UMass Lowell Wednesday afternoon at Harrington Athletics Village.
BC (5-7) won its third straight game and remained undefeated in five all-time meetings against UMass Lowell (2-3).
Schnackenberg (1-0) held the River Hawks to just one run on four hits and struck out four in her first start of the year.
BC got on the board first with a two-out rocket off the bat of Nicole Giery to drive in Djhane Valido for the 1-0 lead. UMass Lowell avoided the big inning as UML starter Ryley White stranded the bases loaded to end the first.
Boston College exploded for five runs in the third as Gianna Boccagno drove in two runs with a blast off the wall and Kristin Giery launched a towering, two-run home run in the five-run third.
UMass Lowell snapped a streak of 15.2 scoreless innings from the BC pitching staff in the fifth with a run before the Eagles scored three in the home half of the inning to end the game after five.
Ellie Mataya continued her stellar start to the season going 2-for-4 with two triples, a run batted in and run scored while Nicole Giery went 3-for-4 with a run and RBI for the victors.
Emme Martinez added two hits as BC finished the afternoon with a season-high 11 hits. Over BC's three-game winning streak, the Eagles have racked up 30 hits and scored 27 runs.
Boston College looks to extend its winning streak to four games on Thursday against local foe Boston University. The two Commonwealth Avenue rivals will play just a single game tomorrow beginning at noon on ACC Network Extra. The originally scheduled doubleheader was changed to just one game due to the weather forecast in Boston.
