JEFFERSON TWP — Knoch graduate Jessi Reed tossed a pair of five-inning complete games Monday as the Butler County Community College softball team opened its season with a 16-1, 9-1 sweep of Westmoreland CC at Laura Doerr Park.

Reed threw a two-hitter and three-hitter and did not allow an extra-base hit on the day. She had 11 strikeouts and two walks.

Offensively, Reed contributed a double, single and three RBI in the first game, a double, two singles and two RBI in the nightcap.

She had plenty of support as the Pioneers banged out 19 hits in the first game and 12 in the second. Nikki Houk had a home run, three singles and scored four runs. Moniteau graduate Alyssa Dailey had a double, three singles, four runs scored and two RBI.

Karns City graduate Ashley Coon had a homer, double and five RBI, Knoch grad Jesse Yenicj four singles and four RBI, Slippery Rock grad Alexis Vogan two doubles, a single and three RBI.

Knoch grad Sydney Natili had a double and RBI in the first game, Mars grad Bailey Campbell a double and two RBI, Lydia Roth a double and two RBI in the second.

The twinbill marked the Pioneers’ head coaching debut of former Moniteau coach Dan Beebe.

BC3 returns to action Friday at Allegany College in Maryland.
