Skyhawks Take Doubleheader To Complete First Sweep of SEMO Since 2016
3/14/2026 7:32:00 PM | Softball
MARTIN, Tenn. – The University of Tennessee at Martin softball team completed its first three-game sweep of Southeast Missouri since 2016 by taking both games of a doubleheader Saturday afternoon at Bettye Giles Field in Martin. The Skyhawks shut out the Redhawks in game one, 5-0, and staved off a late rally in game two, 7-2.
Game 1 – UT Martin 5, Southeast Missouri 0
In the opener, Ashtyn Green threw a complete-game shutout against SEMO, allowing just four hits and two walks with five strikeouts.
Offensively, the Skyhawks did most of their damage in the fifth on a pair of two-RBI doubles from Jordyn Hustey and Kennedy Brown. They tacked on one more in the sixth when Ava Scott flew into a double play, but not before Carly Ward could score from second base.
Avary Makarewicz finished the game at 2-for-2 with a run and two walks, while Hustey went 1-for-1 with a run, a double, two RBIs and two walks.
Game 2 – UT Martin 7, Southeast Missouri 2
Less than 24 hours after tossing the first seven-inning no-hitter in 20 years for the Skyhawks, Sami Scholtz attempted to do it again in game two and carried the bid five and two-thirds innings before giving up back-to-back home runs in the sixth. The home runs cut UT Martin's lead to one after Payton Hurst had an RBI groundout in the second and Ava Scott had a two-run home run in the fourth to build a 3-0 lead earlier in the game.
However, the Skyhawks answered in a big way in the bottom half of the inning to take a commanding 7-2 lead. Dylan Scott plated two runs with an RBI-single, while Karena Recrosio had an infield single to score Kyrsten Brown. Dylan Scott capped the scoring in the inning when she scored after a defensive miscue by the Redhawks.
Natalie Kreuziger earned her second save of the season by shutting down Southeast Missouri in the final one and one-third innings, allowing no runs, hits or walks, while striking out one. Scholtz picked up her fifth win of the season and finished the game with six strikeouts and only one walk. Paired with Friday's game, the junior threw 12 and two-thirds consecutive hitless innings.
Kennedy Brown went 2-for-4 in the contest, while Karena Recrosio was 1-for-2 with an RBI and a walk. Ward was also 1—for-2 in the game with a walk, as well as two runs.
On Tuesday, the Skyhawks return to Bettye Giles Field for a midweek contest against Middle Tennessee at 1 p.m.
