SEGUIN, Texas -- Third-ranked Texas Lutheran posted a pair of run-rule softball victories Friday against Schreiner University.
At Ed Kruse Stadium (Morck Softball Field), TLU won the first game 8-0 and the second game 11-1. Both games ended in the fifth inning.
The first contest of the day was a Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference game. The second game was a non-conference affair.
TLU is now 20-4 overall and 11-0 in the SCAC. Schreiner is 7-19 and 2-7 in the SCAC.
The Bulldogs have won 12 straight.
In the early game Friday, second-year freshman Sydney Ouellette tossed a one-hitter. Ouellette struck out one, hit one, and did not walk a batter. She improved to 9-2 overall.
Sarah Metzer hit a two-run home run in the Bulldogs' four-run third inning.
Kelly Jurden scored a pair of runs in the first game to tie the SCAC record for career runs scored, at 151.
Jurden broke the SCAC record in the second game with a run in the first inning. She added to the record with a run in the fourth. Jurden now has 153 runs scored in 133 career games at TLU.
Haley Padilla also etched her name in a record book - the TLU Softball Record Book. She passed former Bulldog Heather Hummel for the TLU career home runs record. Padilla belted her 17th career home run, a solo shot in the fourth inning.
The Bulldogs scored eight times in that fourth inning.
Skylar Ouellette and Padilla each had three RBIs in the win, and Jurden, Casey Martin, and McKay Bloxham each scored two runs.
Chassety Raines collected the pitching win with four shutout innings. She moved to 4-0.
TLU's next action is next weekend with a Friday-Saturday three-game series against the University of Dallas. The series will have a 7 p.m. single-game Friday and a noon doubleheader Saturday. All games will be played at Ed Kruse Stadium (Morck Softball Field).
