BOWIE, Md. - With little trouble, the No. 1 seeded Shaw University women’s tennis team advanced to the semifinal round of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) Championships with a convincing 5-0 win over No. 8 seed Bowie State (3-13) on Thursday afternoon on the campus of Bowie State University.
With the loss, Bowie State’s season ends with an overall record of 3-11 while Shaw improves to 19-2 overall on the season. The Lady Bears wasted no time with a 3-0 lead after doubles competition, earning wins all by the scores of 8-0. Shaw pushed forward, sealing the victory with wins at No. 2 and No. 6 singles, giving Shaw the 5-0 victory.
Sophomore Kionza Allen (Laurel, Md.) dropped her #2 singles match to Shaw’s Carmen Mantecon 6-0, 6-0 while freshman Oladia Menchaca (Landover, Md.) lost 6-0, 6-0 to Helena Fekete at No. 6.
Bulldogs Softball Demolishes Washington Adventist 12-4 and 16-5 in Non-Conference Play
TAKOMA PARK, Md. – On a very cold Spring evening, the Bowie State Bulldog bats were hot, demolishing the Washington Adventist Lady Shock 12-4 and 16-5 in a non-conference doubleheader.
Bowie State (12-15) beat up on Washington Adventist pitching for 25 hits, which included 11 doubles, two doubles and one home run with junior Morgan Powell (Upper Marlboro, Md.) leading the attack with five hits over two games. Seniors Ja’seph Smith and Jacqueline Pickering, both of Bowie, Md. along with junior Jaelyn Belt (Glen Burnie, Md.) tallied four hits each. Senior Nicoleen Ochoa (Madison, Ohio) went the distance in the circle in both games, striking out 19, eight in the nightcap and pulled her season record to 9-9.
Game one started extremely slow for both teams before the Bulldogs plated two in the top of the 3rd inning. Bowie State led 3-0 heading into the bottom of the 4th inning before Washington Adventist scored their first run in the share of the frame.
With the Bulldogs leading 4-2, the Lady Shock tied the game at 4-all in the bottom of the 5th inning to give the home team new life. However, Bowie State exploded for eight runs on five hits in the top of the 6th inning to close out the opening game 12-4.
Bowie State put three on the scoreboard in the top of the 1st inning of game two only to have Washington Adventist (11-6) match that output with a trio of runs of their own in the bottom half of the opening inning.
The Bulldogs added a run in the 2nd inning and another run in the 3rd inning for a 5-3 advantage. The Lady Shock narrowed the deficit to 5-4 but Bowie State doubled up Washington Adventist in the top of the 4th inning to extend the visitors lead 8-4. It only got worse for the Lady Shock as the Bulldogs scored four runs each in innings five and six.
Bowie State should have finished the game in the 5th inning by way of the mercy rule, but the Washington Adventist Lady Shock plated one run in the bottom of the fifth to send the contest into the decisive 6th inning. The Bulldogs pounded out a dozen hits in the nightcap.
The Bulldogs make their final long regular season road trip this weekend, traveling to Murfreesboro, N.C. to face the division leading Chowan Hawks on Sunday (April 22nd) in a doubleheader beginning at 1 p.m.
