BRONX, N.Y. – The Yeshiva University softball team won both ends of its non-conference doubleheader, against the College of New Rochelle, at Fordham University on Tuesday evening. The Maccabees won the first game, 11-2, while coming out victorious in the second game, 12-0.

The Maccabees struck in the home half of the first, as a single by junior utility player Hannah Dubin, with two outs, scored senior third baseman Erin Potasnick and classmate Rebecca Kleiner to give Yeshiva a 2-0 advantage.  In the bottom of the second, and RBI triple by senior pitcher Rachel Mirsky and an RBI double by Potasnick, highlighted a three-run frame for Yeshiva. In the home half of the third, senior outfielder Rachel Siegel scored Yeshiva's sixth run on a single by sophomore utility player Liat Wasserman.

The Blue Angels loaded the bases, with nobody out, in the top of the fourth. Mirsky had a strong response in the circle, by retiring the next three hitters, two of them by strikeouts, to get out of the jam.

In the bottom frame, Yeshiva scored five more runs. Potasnick's RBI triple scored Mirsky to extend Yeshiva's lead to 7-1. She would come around to score on an RBI double by Dubin to increase the Maccabees' lead to seven runs.

Mirsky retired the Blue Angels in the fifth to pick up the win and pitched her 14^th complete game in the process.

For the game, Siegel went three-for-three, while Potasnick went two-for-two.

In the second game, Mirsky drove in two runs on a double as part of a four-run first inning for Yeshiva (5-10). The Maccabees scored eight runs in the bottom of the second to put the game out of reach for the College of New Rochelle (0-6).
