Kissimmee, Fla. -- The No. 4 ranked-Wayne State University softball squad (16-3 overall) won its fourth consecutive game with a 7-3 triumph over the University of New Haven (4-2) Monday evening at the Rebel Spring Games.

The Warriors scored once in the top of the second on a single by Brittany Omelanchuk (Brooklin, Ont. / Wilson S.S.), back-to-back sacrifice bunts by Becca Ryan (Westland, Mich. / Dearborn Divine Child) and Stephanie LeClair (Kitchener, Ont. / Forest Heights C.I.) and an RBI single by Steph Foreman (Cambridge, Ont. / Preston).

WSU added three runs in the third on two hits and an error. Catcher Rachel Spaccarotelli (Ray, Mich. / Romeo) walked and advanced to second on an error.  Jaci Banton (Richmond Hill, Ont. / Cardinal Carter) followed with a sacrifice bunt and Rebecca Stanley (Waterloo, Ont. / Waterloo C.I.) had an RBI single to left center scoring pinch-runner Kassie Snyder (Marine City, Mich.).  Omelanchuk walked to load the bases and Ryan followed with an RBI single.  LeClair then walked with the bases loaded to make it 4-0.

The Chargers scored three runs on three hits and a WSU error in the bottom of the third to pull within one at 4-3.

In the top of the fifth, Ryan had a leadoff single, went to third on a sacrifice bunt with a throwing error and scored on a single by Foreman.
