DeMatteis made one appearance for the Knights as they opened the Spring Games Sunday with a pair of games. She made the start in the circle for Gannon against Tiffin helping lead the team to a 7-1 win. DeMatteis retired a season-high seven batters, which falls just two shy of her career-high nine strikeouts. She gave up a season-low five hits and allowed only the one run. This also marked her first win in the circle for Gannon this season.

The Knights and DeMatteis continue the Spring Games. They played West Virginia Wesleyan and Wheeling Monday and will be back in action Tuesday vs. Grand Valley State and No. 12 St. Anselm.
