Freshman first baseman Kylee Brown (Mayfair HS) clubbed a first inning grand slam, which led the Cerritos College softball team to a 10-1, 5-inning win over visiting Pasadena City College. The South Coast Conference victory on Thursday improved the team's record to 22-7 overall and 11-3 in conference play. The Falcons will host a pair of non-conference game on Saturday, as they host Saddleback College at 11:00 a.m. and then a 2:00 p.m. game against Fullerton College.
In the five-run first inning, sophomore second baseman Jenny Collazo (Paramount HS) walked and stole second base. Freshman outfielder Kimberly Olivas (Warren HS) was hit by a pitch with one out, while sophomore outfielder Mackenzie Kutzke (Los Alamitos HS/University of Montana) followed with a single to load the bases for Brown. She hit just her second home run of the year to give Cerritos and early lead, while an RBI double from sophomore catcher Jesseca Martinez (Lakewood HS) put the team ahead, 5-0.
Freshman pitcher Kristen Voller (Norco HS) tossed a complete game and allowed a solo home run in the fourth inning and three other singles for the win. She struck out four batters on the day.
The runs continued in the third inning when sophomore shortstop Camille Manzo (La Habra HS/Sterling (KS) College) reached on a two-base outfield error to lead off the stanza. Freshman designated player Jissel Caballero (Warren HS) followed with a single and advanced to second base on another error, which allowed Manzo to score. Sophomore outfielder Jezeree Misaalefua (Carson HS/Long Beach CC) doubled home Caballero. After a walk to Martinez, Collazo accounted for the next two runs with a double.
