CHAPEL HILL, NC -
Nicole Myers pitched a one-hit shutout and struck out 17 to lead Florida Atlantic University to a 4-0 victory over East Carolina Sunday morning in Chapel Hill, NC. The win snapped a season-long three-game losing streak and improved the Lady Owls to 34-15.
FAU broke a scoreless tie in the bottom of the fourth when Kim Nicosia hit a two-run single scoring Kristin Gonzalez and Heather Wright. Callie Piper gave the Lady Owls a 3-0 lead with an RBI-double later in the fourth. Myers completed the scoring with an RBI-single in the sixth to give FAU a 4-0 lead. The junior went 3-for-3 on the day.
Meanwhile, Myers was dominating ECU hitters. After giving up a lead-off walk in the top of the first, Myers proceeded to strike out the next eight batters she faced. The only question left for the Lady Owls was whether Myers would secure a no-hitter. A single by ECU's Kristen Johnson in the top of the seventh ended Myers' bid. With the victory, she improved to 17-10 on the year.
The win for Florida Atlantic also pulled head coach Joan Joyce one victory shy of 300 for her career.
FAU next hosts Samford April 14 in a 6:00pm doubleheader.
