Softball wins Big East title
DePaul scored one in the third, three in the fifth and four in the seventh to bury St. John’s 8-3 in the Big East Championship title game on Saturday at The Ballpark in Rosemont.
Freshman, all-conference pitcher Missy Zoch hurled a complete game, allowing three runs on nine hits with eight strikeouts. She pitched all 14 innings for the Blue Demons in the Big East Tournament this weekend.
“I think it’s the same formula every time you get to playoff softball,” Lenti said after the Blue Demon’s semi-final win on Friday. “It’s timely hitting, strong pitching and strong defense, so whoever does that tomorrow is going to be the Big East Champion.”
