Titans will travel to St. Johns River State College on Tuesday
Doubleheader Delight: Titans Dominate in a No‑Hitter Show
Luci Walters stepped onto the mound and delivered a no‑hitter in Game 2, cementing Eastern Florida State College’s (EFSC) triumph over South Florida State College. The Titans finished the weekend with an impressive 11‑1 record and a 10‑game winning streak.
Game 1 Highlights
- Avery Velazquez went nine innings to shut the Sharks out 14‑0, striking out the first three batters she faced.
- She posted her seventh complete game and fourth shutout of the season, leaving the bottom two runners in the bag as a pinch‑hit on the final inning.
- Top‑scoring moments came from Isabel Otero (two hits, three runs), Emma George (two singles, a two‑run double), and a squad of hitters each contributing two‑hit games.
Game 2 – The “Bam‑Boom” No‑Hitter
- Walters faced just 15 batters over five innings, achieving her first no‑hitter as a Titan.
- She threw eight flyouts, four ground outs, and two strikeouts – and it was all about keeping the ball away from the yard.
- Despite a hit‑by‑pitch early on, the win was sealed by a double play at second base that turned the inning’s lead to zero.
Offensive Fireworks
While Walters wasly salesf the mound, the Titans’ offense opened the gates in the bottom of the first:
- Corazzini earned a base on fielder’s choice, the next batter walked, and a blown error left the bases loaded.
- Aracelis Jimenez answered with a two‑run single on the first pitch.
- In the third inning, multiple players – Jimenez, Grieser, Otero, and Velazquez – crossed the plate.
Season Outlook
EFSC sits at an 11‑1 finish with a 10‑game winning streak. The Titans will head to St. Johns River State College for a Tuesday doubleheader and contest a Thursday doubleheader against Florida Gateway College. Across the season, they lead 2‑1 against the Vikings.
Key Takeaway
With pitchers like Walters and Velazquez putting up historic numbers, and an offense that can turn the see‑to see, the Titans are forging a season that feels more like a fantasy league than a regular schedule.
