Middlebury held Rensselaer to no runs on just three hits as the Panthers (16-10) swept a pair of games from the Engineers (21-9) by scores of 3-0 and 1-0. Middlebury returns to action on Wednesday when it hosts St. Joseph's (Vt.) in a doubleheader at 3:30 p.m., while Rensselaer will entertain St. Lawrence on Saturday at 1:00 p.m.

Allison Quigley (7-2) allowed just four base runners in game one en route to a one-hit shutout. She struck out three batters in the contest, earning her 29th career complete game.

Middlebury got on the board in the top of the first inning with two runs on four hits. Olivia Bravo, Quigley and Melanie Mandell each singled to load the bases with one out. Liza Tarr followed, ripping a double down the left-field line to plate two runners.

In game two, neither team threatened until the final inning. With two outs in the top of the seventh, Rensselaer's best chance to get on the board came when Allie Hunt tripled to left field. The next batter hit a slow roller to second base that Taylor Gardner made a nice play on to get the runner at first.

In bottom half of the inning, Mandell led off with a double down the left-field line. Tarr followed by grounding out to third as Mandell advanced a base. Gardner drove in the game-winning run for Middlebury when she singled down the right-field line to drive in Mandell for the 1-0 win.
