Moscow, PA -- It was all Amelia Bell Thursday night as the junior pitcher powered North Pocono to an 8-2 win over Dallas with a lights-out performance on both sides of the ball. Bell struck out 11 batters and allowed just two runs in a complete game, while also going 2-for-3 with two RBIs at the plate.
After an early 1-1 tie, the Lady Trojans broke things open in the 5th inning with a string of clutch hits from Bell, Alyssa Lynch, Ellie Ambrosecchia, and Avarie Roscioli. In the 6th, Adysen Iyoob put the game out of reach with a two-run homer to center field.
Dallas battled early, with A Traver going a perfect 2-for-2 and E Fostock and M Desanto each driving in a run. Pitcher N Barrouk struck out 8 in a solid effort despite the loss.
North Pocono moves on to face Liberty on Saturday, while Dallas looks to regroup against Lake Lehman on Friday.
