UNLV notebook: Softball team takes two from Riverside

Thursday, April 4, 2002 | 11:42 a.m.

Geney Orris and Jackie Kerrigan pitched the UNLV softball team to a doubleheader sweep of UC Riverside by scores of 6-2 and 6-0 at Eller Media Stadium on Wednesday.

Making a second straight start for the Rebels (21-25), Orris (5-5) controlled the Highlanders (7-30) from the circle, allowing just a single earned run and scattering eight hits for little damage.

Kerrigan (8-11) snapped a five-game losing streak with a three-hit shutout in the nightcap. The freshman carried a no-hitter into the fifth, marred only by a meaningless first-inning fielding error. She pitched with a lead throughout the game after an Orris double drove in Bridget Byrne in the bottom of the first.
