Dobbins shines in sweep over Catawba Valley

RALEIGH, N.C. — Wake Tech Softball picked up four conference wins over the weekend, with a sweep against Catawba Valley. The Eagles' offense tallied 46 runs over the four games. 

Sophomore right-hander Leah Correll played a big role this weekend, pitching in each of the four games and totalling 14.1 innings in the circle. She recorded 15 strikeouts and gave up just four runs. Correll also picked up her first career save in Sunday's series finale. 

Cyndia Dobbins had an incredible weekend at the plate, going 7-for-12 with four home runs, two doubles, and eight RBI. After her four-homer series, Dobbins is now ranked fifth among Region 10 Division II players on the season. Freshman Lexi Kennedy also had a productive weekend, going 6-for-13 and recording her first collegiate home run. Kennedy also got the start in the series finale, going four innings and allowing just one earned run. She is second in Region 10 DII with a 1.75 ERA. 

The four wins puts Wake Tech in third place in the Region 10 DII West standings. The Eagles are back in action on Tuesday against Salem, with a doubleheader at Buffaloe Road Athletic Park starting at 1:00 pm. These are the first of six home games this week, with Southwest Virginia coming to town this weekend for a four-game conference set.
