Hawks capture two wins in final day of Florida trip

The Rockhurst Hawks cruised to comfortable wins over Urbana University (6-0) and Nyack College (16-2) Tuesday in Jan Phyl Village, Florida.

Lauren Marks ignited the Rockhurst offense in game one, driving in four of the Hawks' six runs. Lexie Storrer stifled the Blue Knights' lineup, allowing just one hit in six shutout innings.

Marks got the Hawks on the board in the top of the first, plating Allison Shakiba and Emily Clark with a two-run single. Rockhurst doubled the lead in the third inning on a Maya Gallagher sacrifice fly and an RBI double from Marks, and that duo would drive in two more runs in the fifth.

Marks continued her hitting in game two as the senior one-upped her game one total with five RBIs, including a solo homer.

Nyack hung around early, trailing just 4-2 after three innings, but the Hawks blew the game open with a four-run fourth. The Hawks exploded for eight runs in the fifth to seal the run-rule victory as Paige Renner closed it out in the bottom of the fifth.

Marks finished the second game with four hits, while Clark added three hits and three RBIs.

Coach Bailey Wittenauer's club improves to 13-7 on the year. The Hawks open conference play Saturday at Missouri S&T.
