Soultz went 4-0 for the week, allowing just 13 hits and four earned runs in 22.0 innings for a 1.27 earned run average. She struck out 19 and walked just two.

Soultz, who leads the SCAC in all pitching categories, is now 29-1 on the season with an ERA of 0.78 in 188.1 innings of work. She has struck out 200 batters and opponents are batting just .168 against her.

With at least the SCAC Championships to be played, Soultz's win total of 29 has already shattered the former SCAC single-season mark (20) as has her 200 strikeouts, which is 38 more than the former mark (162).

DePauw's next action is scheduled for Friday, April 25 when it competes in the SCAC Tournament in Danville, Ky.
