The Lake Forest College softball team prevailed 13-4 in six innings and 13-0 in five at Beloit College on Saturday.

Sophomore Kayla Collins pitched the opener for the Foresters and improved to 11-2 on the season. She also drove in the team's first run of the game on a second-inning double that tied the score at one.

After Beloit regained the lead on a two-run homer in the bottom of the second, the Foresters rallied for four in the top of the third. Junior second baseman Kelly Collins singled in the first run and RBI doubles by sophomore first baseman Kyla Chevalier and sophomore left fielder Brooke Swiecki put the visitors on top. They added one more in the inning on a Buccaneer error.

Kelly Collins singled in two more runs in the fourth and, after a Beloit tally in the fifth, Lake Forest plated six more in the sixth. Sophomore right fielder Emmie Nyen singled in one of the runs and back-to-back doubles by Chevalier and freshman designated player Jolie Devalk, combined with another error by the home team, brought in four more.

Swiecki, senior catcher Angelle Bills, and freshman center fielder Kaia Mismash joined Chevalier and Kelly Collins with two hits apiece in the contest.

After recording 13 hits in game one, the Foresters racked up 15, including four doubles and five home runs, in game two. Sophomore third baseman Cadence Dempsey cleared the fence for the fourth time this season in the second inning and freshman designated player Paige Ratliff belted two-run homers in the second and third to raise her season total to three. Junior first baseman Cheyenne Pellettieri followed Ratliff's second of the game with her second of the spring and Chevalier hit her 10th of the year in the fourth.

Lake Forest once again had five players with multi-hit games. Mismash, Chevalier, and Swiecki did it for the second time on the day and were joined by Ratliff and Pellettieri.

Chevalier's three runs batted in during the opener gave her the program's single-season record and she drove in four more in game two to raise the total to 47.

Junior Hannah Smith pitched all five innings for the Foresters and allowed just two base hits while matching her career high for strikeouts with nine.

Lake Forest is now 22-11-1 overall this season and still perfect in Midwest Conference play at 12-0. Beloit fell to 8-26 overall and 2-10 in the league.

The Foresters are scheduled to host two more conference games against Lawrence University on Sunday, beginning at 1:00 p.m. Lake Forest victories in both contests would clinch the team's seventh conference title in the last 10 full seasons and the 13th in program history.
