Ross’ performance in the circle helped lead Le Moyne to a perfect 5-0 record last week. The first-year hurler was stellar, combining for a 1.47 ERA while fanning 19 batters in 19.0 innings and three appearances, including a pair of starts. A four-hit complete-game shutout is what started off the week for Ross, who earned the start and ultimately led the Dolphins past Mount St. Mary’s, 4-0, on Friday in their first game of the week. She closed out the game with nine strikeouts, marking a career-best effort. Later in the day, Ross came out of the bullpen to work five innings, and during that stretch, she did not allow an earned run in the 10-6 win over Mount St. Mary’s. Ross earned her final start on Sunday against Morgan State. Fanning six batters, she made it a 3-0 weekend after Le Moyne scored the 7-4 victory. The Friendship, NY native garners NEC Pitcher of the Week recognition for the first time in her career. On the season, she ranks second in the conference in strikeouts (39) and innings pitched (57.0).
