CLERMONT, Fla. - Ripon's softball team split a pair of games Wednesday, but the highlight of their day came in their first game when the entire Red Hawks team turned in a dominating performance in a 12-0 five-inning victory against Minnesota-Morris, which saw sophomore Lexi Reetz toss her first career perfect game.

Reetz's outstanding day saw her strikeout 10 of the 15 batters she faced, to go along with three flyouts and two groundouts. Forty-one of her 50 pitches on the day went for strikes. That marks Reetz's second complete game shutout of the young season, as she improves her record to 2-2, while lowering her ERA to 1.68.

As hot as Reetz was on the mound, the Red Hawks bats were just as hot, registering 10 hits in the five-inning game, while scoring at least one run in each frame. The Red Hawks got on the board in the top of the first on a three-run home run by Melanie Kobelt, who deposited the ball over the centerfield fence. Ripon doubled their lead in the next inning when freshman Julia Sanchez hit a three-run homer of her own for her first four-bagger in a Ripon uniform.

The Red Hawks scored again in the third on a two-run single off the bat of Ashley Parkkonen, before Sanchez doubled in two more in the fourth. Kobelt added her second home run of the game in that inning, hitting a solo shot to left. Ripon capped off their scoring with an RBI single by Tene Robinson in the fifth.

Sanchez finished the game 2-for-3 with five RBI, which ties a school record for a single game. Kobelt also tied a school record with her two home runs, while her four RBI is tied for eighth in program history.

Ripon didn't fare as well in the nightcap, losing to Westfield State 13-1. Despite the 13-run outburst, Westfield State (2-4) only scored in three innings, plating four runs in both the third and fifth innings, and capping their day with a five-run seventh.

The Red Hawks (2-4) recorded six hits in the second game, with half of them coming from Stephanie Cartwright, who went 3-for-4 at the dish. Jessica Kobelt, Isabella Osborn and Emily Kollmann also collected one hit apiece for the Red Hawks.

Ripon will be in action again Thursday when they'll face Massachusetts College of Liberral Arts and Oswego State at 1 and 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time, respectively, in Clermont, Fla. There will be LiveStats available for their second game at http://sidearmstats.com/oswego/softball/.
