The Hudson Valley Community College softball program had a historic day, which featured a perfect game in game one and a combined no-hitter in game two, as they completed the series sweep today over Tompkins Cortland, extending their streak to eight straight wins. 

GAME ONE: Hudson Valley 17, Tompkins Cortland 0 (5 innings) 

Vikings pitcher, Carly Gemmett, accomplished a feat that everyone dreams about when they become a pitcher in the opening game of the series with the Panthers. Gemmett tossed a perfect game, throwing five complete innings and struck out 12 batters in her historic outing. 

GAME TWO: Hudson Valley 17, Tompkins Cortland 1 (5 innings)

Following the perfect start in game one, the Vikings pitching staff continued to roll as they tossed a combined no-hitter to complete the series sweep. Miranda Peck, Shealynn Peckowitz and Gianna Bucciero teamed up to complete the five innings and did not allow a hit in five innings pitched and allowed only one walk in the fifth. 

UP NEXT: 

Hudson Valley will face a tough weekend as they travel to take on Monroe Community College on Saturday in Rochester, followed by a matchup with Genesee Community College on Sunday in Batavia.
