Addison Jackson Tosses Five-Inning No-Hitter as Softball Remains Undefeated at Home
March 19, 2024 | Softball
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass.– The Boston College Softball team held Maine scoreless throughout five innings as BC defeated the Black Bears, 10-0, to improve to 18-8, and 6-0 at home at the Harrington Athletics Village. The Eagles scored 10 runs on nine hits.Â
Freshman pitcher Addison Jackson dealt her first career no-hitter with the Eagles, walking two Black Bears and striking out five.Â
The no-hitter is the third of the season for the Eagles program. The last was March 17, 2023, at home against Iona.Â
A four-run first inning put the Eagles in front. The scoring started on an RBI single from Nicole Giery to put BC on the board, 1-0. Jackson, Jordan Stephens, and Makenna Segal each added an RBI to complete the four-run first inning. Â
The scoring continued in the fourth inning adding on six runs. With two on base, Darien McDonough knocked a three-run homer, the sixth homer of her career, to go up 7-0. The Eagles tacked on three runs in a row off of a walk advancing a runner through home, a runner scoring on a wild pitch, and a Giery sac fly bringing a runner around the bases.Â
The Eagles held the Black Bears scoreless through the top of the fifth as Jackson secured the no-hitting in five innings, 10-0.
