PHILADEPHIA, Pa. – Millersville came into Monday's doubleheader against Chestnut Hill following a pair of five-inning wins over Holy Family the week before -- the Marauders, along with a combined no-hitter in game one, outscored the Griffins 28-0 in two five-inning victories to extend their winning streak to five.

The Marauders won the first game 17-0 and recorded a combined no-hitter before taking care of business in game two with an 11-0 victory. Millersville improves to 5-1 on the season with its only blemish coming against Goldey-Beacom in the season-opener. Chestnut Hill falls to 0-4 on the short season.

'Ville had a number of strong offensive performances that were highlighted by Allyson Black, Gabi Turner and Gabby D'Ottavio. Black finished 4-6 with six RBI's and a solo shot in game two. D'Ottavio went a perfect 5-5 at the plate and drove in three RBI's, and Turner went 4-6 with seven RBI's and two home runs.

GAME ONE

• Alex Schaefer threw three innings and struck out four batters, while Kendra Bumgardner threw two innings and recorded three strikeouts. Neither pitcher allowed a hit as Schaefer earned her third win of the season to remain unbeaten (3-0).
• The Marauders started strong with four first-inning runs courtesy of a Turner, bases-clearing single that scored three runners after an errant throw from Lock Haven's centerfielder. Turner followed the hit by stealing home on a wild pitch that put 'Ville up 4-0.
• Millersville then had its biggest inning of the day, scoring 13 total runs in the second off of nine hits and a pair of Griffin errors. Millersville started the inning with four-consecutive doubles before Turner hit a two-run blast to left field that put Millersville up 11.

• Millersville's offense was more spread out in game two, with runs coming in the first, third and fourth innings. D'Ottavio opened the scoring with a single to left field in the first that drove in Bumgardner. Allyson Black then snuck a ball past the first baseman to reach second and drive in three additional Marauder runs, putting 'Ville up 4-0 following the first.
• The Marauders would go on to scored five runs in the third inning that was capped off by a two-RBI single to left field from Fuss that extended the lead to nine.
• Turner and Black ended the big day with back-to-back homeruns in the fourth inning.
