[June 08, 2012]  SPRINGFIELD -- The Burgrabe Eagles continued their winning ways by sweeping Springfield St. Agnes 13-4 and 14-2 at Cy Young Field in Springfield.

Heather Curry (4-0) pitched the opener, allowing five hits, striking out three and walking three. Brooklyn Hermes made her pitching debut in the nightcap and dominated St. Agnes, allowing just two hits.

In the opener, the Eagles scored four with a walk to Grace Hemenway, an RBI sacrifice by Danielle Burgrabe, a double by Sydney Johnson, a single by Rachel Podbelsek, a walk to Kalyn Roberts, an RBI single by Curry and a two-RBI single by Mya Roberts.
