Reynolds, Mooney power Mustangs past TWU in Game 1, 3-1

DENTON, Texas - Katie Petersen took a no-hitter into the sixth inning while Alyson Reynolds and Mallory Mooney supplied the offense by launching pair of homers to lead Midwestern State to its 10th straight win taking a 3-1 decision of Texas Woman's Tuesday night at Pioneer Field.

Petersen, who claimed a win in her sixth-straight start to improve to 6-3 on the season, retired 13-straight after issuing a first inning walk to TWU's Haley Siebman.

She would carry the no-hitter into the bottom of the sixth inning before pinch hitter Lyndsey Lipscomb lined a leadoff single to left field. Lipscomb was gunned out by MSU left fielder Nicki Duff trying to stretch a single into a double.

But, with the no-hitter gone, TWU was able to scratch for a run on Billie Callahan's RBI single up the middle.

That wasn't enough for the steal the victory away from Petersen, who allowed three hits, had eight strikeouts and walked one to improve to 6-3.

And she got plenty of support from the long ball.

Alyson Reynolds launched a two-run homer to give MSU a 2-0 lead in the fourth after Jessica Rodriguez reached after being hit by pitch.

Mooney tacked on her first collegiate homer with two outs in the sixth inning to stretch the Mustangs' advantage to 3-0.

Bishop reach in each of her four plate apperances going 3-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base while Reynolds was 2-for-3 with a pair of RBIs.

Carly Case took the loss for the Pioneers to fall to 7-3 on the season - two of her losses have come at the hands of the Mustangs. Case allowed three runs - all earned - on six hits with three strikeouts and two walks.

Midwestern improved to 11-4 on the season, while the Pioneers slipped to 10-10.
