Staten Island, NY - The Wagner College softball team scored 11 runs in the afternoon's first game, and received a stellar effort in the nightcap from sophomore Olivia Zwick (Surrey, British Columbia/ Earl Marriott), sweeping Saint Peter's on Wednesday afternoon on Grymes Hill. The Seahawks took the first game, 11-3, before winning 5-0 in game two. With the wins, Wagner improves to 6-21, while Saint Peter's falls to 5-26.

The Seahawks came out firing in game one, scoring nine runs in the contest's first two frames. Wagner put five on the board in the first, led by a two-run double from junior Hayley Sullivan (Bakersfield, CA/ North) and a two-run single from senior Brittany Huss (Anthem, AZ/ Boulder Creek).

Four more Seahawks crossed the plate in the second inning via the long ball. Freshman Abigail Beasley (Peoria, AZ/ Centennial) drove in three runs on a home run to center, and was followed in the next at-bat with a solo shot by sophomore Kelsey Parker (Lynnwood, WA/ Lynnwood).

Huss would drive in her third run of the game in the fourth inning, giving Wagner a 10-1 lead heading into the fifth. Saint Peter's would get two back in the top of the frame before junior Kristen Matteoni (Reno, NV/ Galena) ended the game with a towering home run to left.

Zwick was consistent and in control throughout the second game, scattering two hits and two walks over seven innings. The sophomore from British Columbia's second-largest city threw 94 pitches, 61 of them for strikes in tossing her second career shutout.

Parker would drive in the game's first runs in the first inning on a two-run double off the wall in right. It was one of two doubles in the second game for Parker.

The other Seahawk runs in game two came on an RBI groundout by sophomore Beth Lewis (Ashburn, VA/ Stone Bridge) in the fifth, and a two-run double in the sixth by Matteoni that landed on the left field foul line.
