Ospreys Shut Out Six-Straight Opponents For First Time Since 2013
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - North Florida softball (15-5) impressed once again in its doubleheader matchup against Monmouth with back-to-back victories against the Hawks (1-11) on day two of the UNF-JU Spring Break Challenge. UNF has now won seven-straight games and improves to 12-2 at home.
The Ospreys only allowed one hit in their 1-0 win in game one before following that up with a 10-0 run-rule shutout-win in five innings. It's now six-straight games that UNF has held opponent scoreless, which is the longest streak for the program since 2013.
Halle Arends was the star on the mound for the one-hit performance in the first game while pitching a complete game to notch her sixth win of the season. Shannon Glover and Takiya London both had multi-run big flies in the second victory of the day against the Hawks.
Kayla Harper's lone run in the bottom of the first was just enough for the Ospreys to edge Monmouth, 1-0, in the first of two against the Hawks.
