NEW WILMINGTON, Pa.--Sophomore Cheyenne Piper (Latrobe, Pa., Ligonier Valley) powered the Westminster softball team to a Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) sweep of visiting Franciscan Wednesday, delivering her second-straight one-hitter while striking out 13 in the 13-0, five-inning game one triumph. Westminster cruised to a 14-3, five-inning win in game two. 

Westminster, winners of five straight, improved to 20-8 overall and 14-2 in the PAC.
