GWYNEDD VALLEY, PA. – Misericordia swept a non-league doubleheader from Gwynedd-Mercy, taking game one, 6-3, and the second, 14-2.

Game one saw the Griffins battle back from a 5-0 deficit, getting a run in the fifth and two in the sixth, but it was too much of the Cougars' Caitlin Cromley. On the mound, she struck out 12 with no walks and at the plate she helped open the scoring in the third with a two-run single. She would tack on a solo homer in the seventh for some insurance.

Trailing 3-0, Megan Hardy added a two-run homer to left in the fourth to give Misericordia a five-run lead. The Griffins (0-14) got on the board with an RBI single from sophomore Catlin Nuscis (Chichester, Pa./Chichester).

Starter Jennifer Whalen (Philadelphia, Pa./Archbishop Ryan) went all seven innings, allowing three earned runs on seven hits with six strikeouts and five walks.

With two outs in the sixth and runners on first and second, freshman Chelsea Collazo (Bristol, Pa./Conwell-Egan) delivered a two-run double to deep center to cut it to 5-3. Cromley would end it with a 1-2-3 seventh.

In game two, Misericordia (9-7) pounded out 16 hits en route to the win.

For Gwynedd, sophomore Stephanie Farrar (North Wales, Pa./North Penn) went 2-for-3 with a run scored. Whalen was 1-for-3 with a stolen base.

Kristi Seiler was 4-for-4 with 3 RBIs and two runs scored. Teammate Jill Castaldi was 3-for-3 with a pair of triples and three RBIs.

The Cougars plated three in the second and four in the third to go up 7-2. Three more runs crossed in the fourth and four more in the fifth. Gwynedd had five hits in game two.

Freshman Kaitlyn Johnson (Milford, N.J./Delaware Valley) took the loss, going into the fifth, surrendering nine earned runs on 11 hits.

The Griffins will try get their first win on the year on Friday when they play at Baptist Bible for two in a CSAC Twinbill starting at 3 p.m.
