Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 DARTMOUTH, Mass. – Junior Brooke Matyasovsky (Orange) homered in support of her own pitching win for the second straight day as the Eastern Connecticut State University softball team completed a two-day, four-game sweep of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth with 9-3, 6-1 non-conference victories Saturday afternoon at the UMD Softball Complex.
 
The games were the first this season on the road for unbeaten Eastern (14-0), ranked No. 12 nationally.
 
After homering and picking up the pitching win with one inning of relief in a Little East Conference first-game win over UMass Dartmouth (0-9) Friday afternoon at Clyde Washburne Field, Matyasovsky belted her team-leading sixth home run of the season – a two-run home run in a three-run fifth inning -- to support her own complete-game five-hitter in Saturday's second game.
 
Matyasovsky also had a two-run single in a three-run third inning and finished Game 1 by going 3-for-4 with four RBI and a run scored.
 
In two wins Saturday, senior Alexis Tyrrell (Torrington) had four hits – including the 100^th of her career on an RBI triple in a four-run second inning in Game 1. She drove in two runs and scored two. Graduate transfer Cassie Woods (Mystic) – who beat UMD with a walk-off home run in Game 1 Friday, had five hits and drove in three runs and scored three in the doubleheader.
 
Junior righty Carley Stoker (Sandy Creek, NY) improved to 7-0 by pitching the first six innings of the first game, with Eastern breaking open a one-run game with five runs in the top of the seventh on six hits on the strength of a two-run double by junior Julia SanGiovanni (East Haven) a run-scoring single by sophomore pinch hitter Brooke Gottshall (Canterbury) and a two-run pinch single by sophomore Carley Gessaro (Middletown) – the first RBIs of her career.
 
Matyasovsky (7-0) closed out the first game with an inning of hitless relief in support of Stoker, then pitched her third complete game in six starts in Game 2, allowing only an unearned run in the third. She has now pitched 28 2/3 innings without allowing an earned run over her last seven appearances in lowering ERA to a staff-best 1.27.
 
Eastern visits Rhode Island College Friday for a Little East Conference doubleheader at 2 p.m. The Warriors swept RIC in a pair of non-conference games at Washburne Field March 23 by scores of 15-0 and 12-4.
