CSM SOFTBALL SWEEPS 3 TOP FOES, 30-0, AS GRECH & UBOIS SMACK HRs

SAN MATEO – Kaitlyn Grech and Amanda Ubois-Weitenhagen smashed home runs as College of San Mateo swept 2nd and 3rd place softball foes from three other conferences by a combined 30-0 count in 5-inning mercy-rule games over the weekend.

The scores:

--CSM 8, San Jose City College 0, with Emily McAdams pitching a 3-hitter and striking out five;
