  Speaker 1: a routine she uses as a release during pressure spots.

  Speaker 1: Yorkville's sophomore pitcher will step out of the circle and
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: then she'll take a deep breath. I will stop for

  Speaker 1: a second and just figure it out, remind myself that
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: I know I can do it. Roseauer said. It helps
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: me settle down in pressure situations. Roseauer was absolutely nails
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: in relief during Tuesday's game in Yorkville, as was her counterpart,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Oswego senior Jayalen Anthony. The two pitchers escaped multiple jams

  Speaker 1: last six. Finally, a game between Southwest Prairie Conference leaders
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: that was originally postponed Monday due to inclement weather was
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: suspended at three to three going into the top of
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: the twelfth. It's not yet known when the resumption of
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: the game will be held. The first eleven innings lived
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: up to what's become a fierce rivalry playing Yorkville. You
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: can assure yourself you are going to watch a good
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: game between two teams when these teams play Aswego, coach
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Annie Scaramuzi said. Rose Houer, coming on in relief of
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Ellie Fox with the bases loaded and two out in
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: the fifth, allowed Leah McKenzie's infield single that scored the
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: tying run. She didn't budge after that. Rose Over struck
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: out eight and allowed four hits over six and one
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: third innings. She struck out the side in the seventh
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: inning Oswego, leaving the go ahead run at third. In
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: the eleventh, mackenzie hit a pop fly double to lead off,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: and Brent Broughton singled to put runners at the corners
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: with none out, but Roseauer came back to get two groundouts,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the runner not advancing from third, and a swinging strike
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: out to end the threat. I kind of have to
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: rely on my defense. I know they will make the
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: plays for me, rose Auer said, I know you can
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: do it. You have to not think about the situation.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: The more you think about it, the more you don't succeed.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Yorkville coach Jory Reginier was not surprised to see Roseauer
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: succeed in a big spot. I think she is always
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: ready to step into the game. Call on me, let's go,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Reginier said. She's a gamer in the moment. She loves
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: that moment. I honestly think she thrives on it. Anthony,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: a Purdue commit, was put in quite a spot in
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: the bottom of the seventh. She relieved Adeline Fugut with
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Yorkville' Kenzie Mendez on third and one out. Anthony struck
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: out the next batter, and after intentionally walking Kayla Kursting,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: got another strikeout to force extras. Runners don't really bother me,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Anthony said, they are kind of just there. To be honest,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I'm just focused on the batter. She's grown used to
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: the relief role. Pitching in relief of Fugut in almost
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: all of US Egos games this season. Anthony struck out
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: four and allowed just one hit in four and two
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: thirds innings of shutout relief. Pressure situations don't bother me,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Anthony said, I've been thrown in pressure situations since I
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: started pitching. Her most pressure spot came in the bottom
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: of the tenth when Yorkville loaded the bases with none
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: out with two walks and a fielder's choice, the next
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: batter lined out and Anthony then got a line out
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: double play to end the threat. The defense did a
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: really good job of having our pitcher's backs, Scaramuzie said.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Our pitchers, both of them were lights out, but so
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: was our defense behind them. Our game plan all year
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: has been Ada will go the distance until we need Jay,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: and then Jay will shut it down. Yorkville twenty one
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: six nine, which won the team's first meeting out as
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: we Go scored twice in the first. Kursting lined a
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: triple to the gap, Calli Ferko singled her in, and
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Fox doubled in Ferko Ferko doubled in Alyssa Muhlbach in
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: the third to make it three zero. Oswego fififteen to eight,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: nine to one tied it in the fifth, batting around
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: in a three run inning after Yorkville intentionally walked Anthony
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: with two out to load the bases, Olivia East singled
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: in Fugut and Kennedy Gengler was hit by a pitch
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: to score Betsy Jack with the second run. Mackenzie's infield
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: hit tied it. I thought as the game went on,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: our at bats got better. Scaramuzi said, we were swinging
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: it well today against two really good pitchers. Resnia, whose
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: program hosts a sectional set, a game like Tuesdays was
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: good preparation for a few weeks from now. It prepares
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: you pressure at bats, pressure defensive plays, kids stepping up.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: How are we responding? She said, that takes a lot
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: when you're going into the twelfth inning. We work hard
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: to prepare ourselves for the grind.
