    BOSTON, Mass. – The Endicott softball team swept Wentworth, 9-1 (5 inn.) and 5-0, in conference action on Sunday evening at Carr Diamond.

    GAME ONE: Endicott 9, Wentworth 1 (5 inn.)

    WP (14-4): Maria Hanchuk (South Windsor, Conn.) – 5 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 6 K
    LP (8-7): Kayla DeMedeiros (South Dartmouth, Mass.) – 4 IP, 8 H, 6 R, 4 ER, 2 BB, 2 K

    The Gulls scored three in the first and sixth more in the fifth to run away with the victory.

    Chrissy Marotto (Southington, Conn.) highlighted the offense with a 2-for-3 day at the plate alongside one run scored and three RBI from the cleanup spot.

    GAME TWO: Endicott 5, Wentworth 0

    WP (11-4): Jaylin Couto (Taunton, Mass.) – 7 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 8 K
    LP (7-6): Erin Hancock (Holden, Mass.) – 7 IP, 11 H, 5 R, 3 ER, 0 BB, 1 K

    Couto took a no-hitter into the seventh inning to lead Endicott to the sweep.

    Couto's no-hit bid was broken up by a leadoff single to center, but the sophomore righty was unfazed as she spun a 4-6-3 double play ball on the next batter. Couto finished off the complete-game shutout in the next at-bat with a pop up to second base.

    Overall, Couto only faced two batters over the minimum and registered four 1-2-3 frames (1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th).

    Carly Marchitto (Orange, Conn.), Lauren Misiaszek (Londonderry, N.H.), Raven Comtois (Milford, N.H.), and Marotto all drove in runs to pace the offense.
