Mclelland Powers No. 20 Spartans to Sweep on First Day of Florida Trip

Mclelland threw five scoreless innings, hit two home runs, and had five RBI in two games

Behind an all-around day from first-year pitcher/outfielder Camryn Mclelland, the 20th-ranked Case Western Reserve University softball team won both of its games on Sunday at Hancock Park in Clermont, Florida, to begin THE Spring Games, defeating Lake Forest College 4-0 and Alfred University 9-4.

The Spartans improved to 6-0 to start the season, while the Foresters and Saxons both dropped to 1-1.

Mclelland starred in the circle and at the plate for the Spartans. She tossed five scoreless innings to earn the win in the first game, while also driving in three runs with a pair of homers. In the second contest, Mclelland had two hits, including a double, two runs batted in, and a stolen base.
