MONTGOMERY, Alab. -- Texas Lutheran junior right-hander Maitlin Raycroft (Spring/Klein/Galveston College) tossed the 15th no-hitter in school history and set the new school mark for strikeouts in a game (18) in the Bulldogs' 10-0 win Sunday afternoon against Huntingdon College (Alab.).

Raycroft's pitching gem capped the Bulldogs' road doubleheader sweep of the Hawks (0-6). TLU won the first game 4-2 behind Amanda Lochte's (Fredericksburg/Fredericksburg) complete game.

In the late game, Raycroft struck out the side in the first four innings and then struck out the side again in the seventh. After Huntingdon loaded the bases with one out in the seventh, with a walk and a pair of fielding errors, Raycroft struck out the final two Hawks swinging.

The 18 strikeouts by Raycroft are tied for the third-most in Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference history.

Raycroft improved to 2-2 overall. She faced 27 total batters. The Bulldogs made three errors, and Raycroft walked four. The Hawks had two ground-outs against Raycroft. The other out came via a caught stealing.
