Box Score

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Devon Grippe struck out three and walked only one in five innings of nearly perfect softball on Sunday afternoon as the Dragons defeated Saint Peter's at the Maryland Invitational, 10-0. Grippe's no-hitter is the fourth win of the season for the junior.

While Grippe starred in the circle, Haley Hulitt fueled the offense with three hits and six RBI. Her grand slam in the fourth inning, her third home run of the year, turned the game from a 5-0 Drexel lead into a 9-0 romp, and ultimately led to the run-shortened five-inning victory for Drexel. Hulitt also drove in the first two Drexel runs with a double in the third.

Taylor M. Lee added a two-run homer later in the third inning, driving in Hulitt. Megan Trivelpiece capped the scoring with her first round tripper, capping a five-run fourth that followed the five-run third. Trivelpiece went 3-for-3 on the afternoon and scored twice. Kirsti DiMeo and Elena Woulfe each scored twice as Drexel finished the tournament weekend 3-1 in College Park and moved to 9-10 overall on the year.

The Dragons will return to action next Saturday when they open their home slate with the first of 10 straight at the Drexel Softball Field. It opens with a single game against Delaware on Saturday at 2 p.m., followed by a doubleheader against the Blue Hens on Sunday beginning at noon.
