WEST CHESTER, Pa. — Steph Denlinger (sr. Harleysville/Souderton) continued her tear through the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Eastern Division with two more homers during a doubleheader sweep of West Chester Tuesday.
Denlinger totaled four RBIs in the doubleheader, as the Kutztown University softball team (32-6, 8-0 PSAC East) won both games by a score of 3-1. After hitting two home runs on Monday against Shippensburg and another two Tuesday, Denlinger has 16 on the season and 72 in her career.
She already owns the Division II record for home runs in a career and she moved into eighth place on the all-time collegiate record books as the Division I record for home runs is 90.
The Golden Bears, who have won 21 of their last 22 games, are now four games ahead of West Chester (21-9, 3-3 PSAC East) and Shippensburg (15-13, 3-3 PSAC East) for first place in the division.
KU will return to the field at 3 p.m. Friday for a PSAC East doubleheader at Millersville (18-17, 1-7 PSAC East). The Golden Bears swept the Marauders 3-2 and 3-0 at home on March 25.
