No. 12 Angelo State Softball Sweeps UT Permian Basin

ODESSA, TX – The No. 12-ranked Angelo State softball team scored 23 runs in two games to sweep UT Permian Basin in a doubleheader Wednesday, with the Rambelles winning 13-8 and 10-0.

A two-out rally in the first inning saw the Rambelles push across three runs, doing so on a Tatiana Trotter single, an Ashleigh Dendas double and an Abby Brand single.

Another Trotter RBI single in the third inning grew the lead to 4-0.

RBI singles by Trotter and Brand in the fifth inning gave the Rambelles a 6-0 advantage.

A two-RBI double from Sifuentes and Trotter's fourth RBI single of the game made it 9-1, but the Belles weren't able to cruise from there.

The Falcons pushed three runs across in the bottom of the sixth to make it 9-4.

The Rambelles struck for four runs in the top of the seventh, with scoring kicked off by an Amiya Jasso's first collegiate hit, an RBI single to right field.

Back-to-back RBI singles by Karli Manney and Kylie Forney pushed across a pair of runs before Dendas was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded to plate the Rambelles' final run.

The Falcons then struck for four runs on a pair of home runs in the bottom of the seventh to make it 13-8.

Game 2 was scoreless until the fourth inning, when back-to-back-to-back doubles by Taylor Haywood, Greysen Collins and Larryn Feuge to start off the inning plated a pair of runs.

A two-out single by Sifuentes scored the third run of the inning.

A Forney two-out infield single in the sixth inning made it 4-0 before Sifuentes tacked on two more runs with her eighth home run of the season, a no-doubter over the left-center fence.

The Rambelles tacked on four more runs in the seventh inning courtesy of a Haywood RBI single, a double steal, a Collins sacrifice fly, and a Hurtado double.

Bri Waters was sublime in the circle, throwing a complete-game shutout where she only allowed two hits and three walks while recording two strikeouts as she improved to 2-0 on the season following her first start of the year.

The Rambelles are now 29-6 on the season and 18-4 in Lone Star Conference play. The two teams will play another doubleheader in San Angelo at 5 p.m. Thursday at Mayer Softball Field.
