College Spring Sports : Dickmann Flawless in CSUN Win

Sophomore Debbie Dickmann pitched a perfect game to lead Cal State Northridge to a 3-0 victory over Cal State Sacramento in the second round of pool play in the Pioneer Classic softball tournament at Cal State Hayward on Saturday.

Dickmann (13-2) had six strikeouts in a game that was called after six innings because of a time limit.

Northridge scored single runs in the first, third and fourth on seven hits. In the first, the Lady Matadors loaded the bases on singles by Lisa Erickson, Lisa Martin and Beth Onestinghel before Pam Smith hit into a fielder’s choice to score Erickson.

Onestinghel scored in the third on Kim Bernstein’s single to left. Onestinghel had reached base on a fielder’s choice, stolen second and advanced to third on a wild pitch.

Anna Getherall doubled, advanced to third on Erickson’s single and scored on an error in the fourth for CSUN’s final run.

CS Northridge 7, Sonoma State 0--The Lady Matadors posted their second shutout of the day behind the pitching of Delanee Anderson in a game called after five innings because of a time limit.

Northridge scored three in the fourth and added four in the fifth.

Bernstein hit a solo home run leading off the fourth. Smith added a run-scoring single and then scored on Lisa Hall’s triple to center.

In CSUN’s first tournament game Friday, Onestinghel hit her 14th triple of the year to better her school record and lead Northridge to an 8-2 victory over Santa Clara.
