EAST STROUDSBURG—Sarah Bertoni (Nanticoke/Greater Nanticoke Area) pitched a complete-game six hitter to lead the Bloomsburg University softball team to a 4-2 win in game two of a PSAC (Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference) Eastern Division doubleheader on Monday. East Stroudsburg took the opener 3-2 in nine innings.

The doubleheader was the third in four days with five more consecutive days of games facing the team.
 
GAME TWO
The Huskies jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the first taking advantage of some wildness from East Stroudsburg starter Rachael Liguori. Erika Yanora (Tunkhannock/Tunkhannock) got hit by a pitch leading off the game, moved to second on a bunt by Kayla McHale (Dillsburg/Northern) and took third on ground out by Mandi Baer (Douglassville/Daniel Boone). Yanora then came home on a wild pitch by Liguori.
 
Bloomsburg made it 2-0 with a run in the top of the fourth. Baer doubled to lead off the inning. After a ground out, Hannah Moir (Mount Laurel, NJ/Lenape ) singled to left. Baer originally stopped at third, but came in to score when the left fielder misplayed the ball for an error.
 
In the circle Bertoni was cruising along giving up just two hits through the first six innings of action.
 
Bloomsburg got two insurance runs in the top of the seventh, which would turn out to be crucial. Rachel Fredell (Dingmans Ferry/Delaware Valley) singled to lead off the inning with Mandi Black (Huntington Mills/Northwest Area) coming in to pinch run. Chrissy Belko (Old Forge/Old Forge) reached on an error while bunting Black to second. Yanora then singled with Black racing home for the third run. McHale then reached on a fielder's choice with Belko out at third on the play. After a strikeout, Bertoni singled up the middle scoring Yanora and giving Bloomsburg a 4-0 lead.
 
The Warriors finally got to Bertoni in the bottom of the seventh. Cara McNeil reached on an error leading off the inning and moved to second on a wild pitch. Rebecca Smith then singled and went to second on the throw with McNeil holding at third. Amanda McKay then lofted a sacrifice fly to center scoring McNeil with Smith advancing to third. Sierra Wagner then doubled scoring Smith and making it 4-2. After a fly out, the Warriors singled putting runners at first and third. Bertoni, though, got a fly out to end the game.
 
Bertoni finished the day giving up no earned runs, issued no walks and struck out four. Baer and Moir each had two hits to lead the offense.
