Box Score 2 MAHWAH, N.J. – The Rutgers University-Camden softball team is quickly making the 2013 season a distant memory.
The Scarlet Raptors, who won only four New Jersey Athletic Conference games all of last season, won their fourth NJAC game in two days here Tuesday as they swept past Ramapo College, 2-1 and 6-3. The doubleheader sweep comes on the heels of a home sweep against New Jersey City University Monday and raises the Raptors' record to 11-4-1 overall and 4-0 in the NJAC.
All four of those victories were pitched by sophomore
(Maple Shade, NJ/Audubon). Senior catcher
(Marlton, NJ/Cherokee) plated Dick with a ground out.
Ramapo tied the game in the second on an unearned run, aided by two of the Raptors' five errors in the game.
