EDMOND (March 18) – Kalynn Schrock tossed a perfect game, Nicole Brady followed with another shutout and Central Oklahoma rolled over intrastate rival Rogers State here Tuesday.
 
It was UCO's debut on its newly-renovated on-campus field and the Bronchos hammered the Hillcats 10-0 and 7-0 to stretch their winning streaks to 11 straight overall and 33 in a row at home.
 
Hannah Justus smashed two home runs and drove in seven runs in the opener, while Schrock was masterful in the circle during the five-inning run-rule rout.  The senior star struck out 10 in facing the minimum 15 batters and didn't come close to giving up a hit in improving to 12-4 on the season.
 
Brady followed with the seventh shutout in UCO's 11-game winning streak, scattering five hits and fanning four to stay unbeaten (3-0) on the season.
 
"Kalynn and Nicole both pitched extremely well and it was finally good to get to play on our own field," said interim head coach Cody White, whose team played its first eight home games at Edmond North High School.  "Hannah came through with a couple of big hits and we did some good things offensively."
 
The Bronchos had 12 hits in the first-game romp, taking a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first on Brooke Zukerman's sacrifice fly and Emily Ditmore's run-scoring double.
 
Justus belted just the fourth homer of her four-year career – and the first since the 2012 season – in the third with a three-run shot to left field that helped extend the lead to 6-0 and she smacked a no-doubt grand slam to center in the third to make it 10-0.
 
Justus, Ally Dziadula and Ashleigh Tramel had two hits apiece in the opener.
 
The second game was a scoreless tie until the fourth when UCO took charge with a six-run outburst as the Bronchos paraded 11 batters to the plate in a four-hit, three-error inning.
 
Kaylee Brunson had the big hit with a two-run single, while Ditmore added an RBI hit.  UCO completed the scoring in the fifth on Dziadula's run-scoring single.
 
Dziadula went 3-for-4 to lead a 10-hit attack, with Brunson and Tramel adding two hits each.
 
The Bronchos, now 19-7 on the season, return to Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association play Friday when they host Pittsburg State for a 1 p.m. doubleheader.
