It was a rough day for St. John's when the Crimson came to town this weekend.
After the second-seeded St.John's basketball team was upset by tenth-seeded Gonzaga in the second round of the NCAA tournament, the Harvard women's softball team added to the pain of the St. John's faithful, holding the Red Storm offense to two runs in two games.
Despite Harvard's spectacular pitching performance, the Crimson (2-6) could only manage to split the weekend series with St. John's (9-12), roaring back to take the second game of the doubleheader, 4-0, after dropping the opener, 2-1.
The Crimson pitching was perfect in the second game as sophomore Suzanne Guy improved to 2-2 on the season with a complete shutout.
Guy came out firing strikes, striking-out four without allowing a walk in seven-innings of work.
Helping out her own cause, Guy drove in a pair of runs with a sacrifice fly and an RBI single up the middle.
After three scoreless innings, Harvard got all the offense it would need in the fourth as a pair of Crimson runs came across the plate.
Harvard would add insurance runs in the fifth and sixth innings as the Crimson rolled to an easy 4-0 victory.
