THE BASICS
Team and individual records were set at the Billiken Sports Center Saturday afternoon as first-place Saint Louis swept an Atlantic 10 Conference doubleheader from St. Bonaventure, 15-6 in six innings and 3-0.
 
SLU (28-19, 16-5 A-10) extended its winning streak to a school-record 13 games, breaking the previous mark of 12 set in 2023. The Billikens are 19-3 in their last 22 games.
 
The victories were the 10th and 11th in a row at home, breaking the previous school record of nine set in 2016 and equaled in 2023.
 
Also, the Billikens increased their school-record total for consecutive A-10 regular-season wins to 14.
 
Abby Mallo swatted her 38th career home run – a two-run walk-off blast in the sixth inning of the opener – to break the previous Saint Louis record of 37 set by Sadie Wise (2018-22). Mallo now has a school-record 61 RBIs on the season, seven more than the previous mark of 54 she established in 2023.
 
Isabel Royle picked up her third shutout and 10th win of the season in game two.
