Etherington Pitches No-Hitter; Leads Raiders To Sweep vs BCU

Kameryn Etherington pitched a no-hitter in game one while also picking up the win in game two in leading Northwestern to a doubleheader sweep against Briar Cliff today in a GPAC softball doubleheader played today in Orange City. 

Northwestern has won three straight games and improved to 4-2 in the conference, 17-7 overall. 

Etherington's masterpiece in game one was the 13th no-hitter thrown in program history; the freshman's teammate, Samantha Ubben, was the last to throw a no-hitter (vs Presentation in 2020). Etherington struck out a career-best 11, did not walk a batter and allowed only one BCU hitter to reach base off a Raider error. 

    Game One: 6-0 win
  • Scoring Plays:
    • Northwestern scored the first run on a sacrifice fly by Jennifer Boeve, scoring Emily Bosch, in the bottom of the third
    • the Raiders plated two more in the fifth; singles by Bosch and Boeve combined with a BCU error led to the first run of the inning; another Chargers miscue on a ball hit by Etherington scored Boeve to give Northwestern a 3-0 lead
    • Jordyn Kramer and Megan Nichols hit back-to-back singles to start the sixth inning; Kramer later scored on a wild pitch
    • a two-run single, scoring Nichols and Madysn Grotewold, to complete the scoring in the sith

    • Northwestern totaled 10 hits
      • Emily Bosch went 2-for-4 with two runs scored as the leadoff hitter
      • Jennifer Boeve continued to be one of the team's top run producers, going 2-for-3 with 3 RBI
      • six other Raiders had one hit each
    • Briar Cliff's Kayla Guerrero (1-3), one of three Chargers pitchers to throw, gave up four hits and one run in four innings
    Game Two: 5-2 win
  • Scoring Plays:
    • 1st inning - Bosch led off with a single, advanced to second after a bunt by Jessica Mouw and scored on an error by the Chargers
    • 3rd inning - Briar Cliff tied the game on a leadoff single from Josie Chronic who scored on an RBI single by Alexis Westercamp
    • 3rd inning - Northwestern went ahead for good with a pair of runs in the bottom of the third
