KRISTEN ACOCELLA LEADS STRATFORD BRAKETTES PAST JUNIOR BRAKETTES
July 18 - Kristen Acocella of Easton drove in four runs Saturday to lead the Stratford Brakettes to a 10-2 victory over the Junior Brakettes in the Micki Stratton Round Robin at Frank DeLuca Hall of Fame Field.
Acocella delivered a two-run single in the fourth inning as the Stratford Brakettes turned a 2-1 lead into a 5-1 advantage as they scored three times that inning. Acocella had a two-run single in the sixth inning and Rebecca Findley followed with a two-run home run for Manager John Stratton's 19-2 Brakettes.
The Junior Brakettes (8-5) saw their eight-game win streak come to an end with the loss. Charlee Horton of Stamford led the Junior Brakettes with two hits, including a one-out home run in the fifth inning. It was her third home run of the day. All of the Junior Brakettes defeats have been at the hands of the Stratford Brakettes.
Shelton's Kaysee Talcik (4-1) picked up the win as she limited the Junior Brakettes to five hits and struck out five. Fairfield's Olivia Vadas (0-1) suffered the loss, but allowed only one hit in 3.1 innings.
The Stratford Brakettes defeated the CT Eliminators 18+ team with a 12-4 victory earlier in the day. Sydney Senerchia (3-0) was the winner with relief help from Sarah Lawton.
