INDIANAPOLIS—The No. 4 UIndy softball team spent Monday afternoon giving the home faithful their first glimpse of this year's team. The Greyhounds did not disappoint, earning 6-1 and 4-0 wins against the visiting Lewis Flyers under near-perfect weather conditions.
 
GAME 1 | UIndy 6, Lewis 1
The Flyers took an early lead by pushing across a run in the top of the first inning. That would be the lone run surrendered by starter Kenzee Smith, however, as the sophomore ace went on to scatter six hits and just one walk on the way to win No. 11 on the season.
 
Meanwhile, the Hounds quickly wrestled the lead away with a pair of runs in the bottom of the first and went on to score six unanswered runs in all. UIndy had 15 hits for the game – at least one from each of UIndy's nine hitters. Hanna Burris and Dominique Proctor both earned RBI doubles, part of a combined five hits from the duo.
 
FUN FACT
Super-senior Sydnie Foster became the fourth active Greyhound and just the 20th all-time to score 100 career runs, joining teammates Gianni Iannantone, Hanna Burris and Haylie Foster in the century club.
 
GAME 2 | UIndy 4, Lewis 0
H. Foster had one of her best games of the season in the circle, overmatching the Flyers with a two-hit shutout. The Plainfield, Ind., product struck out five and walked zero to match Smith's stellar 11-1 record on the year.
 
Iannantone had the first of her three hits in the game in the first inning, plating Proctor with the opening tally. The former added another RBI single in the third, which was preceeded by a Lexy Rees' run-scoring double. Shortstop Sydnee Perry chipped in an RBI single in the fifth to cap the scoring.
