Trevecca Softball | Ashlan Sensing Throws Perfect Game versus UMSL, Trojans Finish Spring Games with Two Wins

WINTER HAVEN, Fla. – The Trevecca Nazarene University softball team (16-8) finished up at the 2024 PFX Spring Games on Friday morning with a pair of wins highlighted by Ashlan Sensing's perfect game versus the University of Missouri-St. Louis.
  
In game one, Trevecca defeated to the University of Missouri-St. Louis (9-10) and then later beat Upper Iowa University (10-16) in game two. The Trojans take a 2-1 lead in the all-time series while the Trojans take a 1-0 lead over the Peacocks.
   
HOW IT HAPPENED
GM 1: TNU 8, UMSL 0 – F/6
A special game for Trojan starter Ashlan Sensing started with a strikeout to retire the side in the top of the first. Trevecca's bats were kept quiet through the first two frames despite having three Trojans reach base. Sensing struck out two more in the top of the third making way for the Trojans to bolster ahead in the bottom half of the inning. The first four Trojans reached base safely in the third via three singles and a walk before a sac bunt and another single gave the Trojans a 4-0 lead.
 
Sensing induced another strikeout and two ground-outs in the fourth before the Trojans added two more runs.After a lead-off single by Gracie KirbyRaegan Hunter pinch ran and scored from first after an error by the left fielder on the very next play. Kendall Andrews brought in Anna Bennett via an RBI single to right field to give Trevecca a 6-0 lead. The fifth and sixth innings saw two more strikeouts per frame from Sensing who retired 18 Tritons in all. Trevecca finished up the game in the sixth inning via run-rule by adding a pair of runs off two RBI singles from Kendall Andrews and Kyleigh Burgett, respectively.

Kyleigh Burgett was also a perfect 2-2 with two RBI, a stolen base and a walk.

* Sensing is the only pitcher in the NCAA-era to throw a perfect game in Trevecca history.
* Before Sensing last season, the last time a Trojan pitcher pitched a perfect game was March 19, 2009, when Shelby Mashburn struck out 12 out of 15 batters en route to a 10-0 win over Fisk in five innings in the second game of a doubleheader.
