Hom both had a career high in runs batted in with five and four, respectively, as nine Pirates had at least one hit.

Hom was three for four, while Marin was two for four to fortify a collective OCC flex that included a one-hit shutout by sophomore pitcher Carlie Chauslett-Utley, who had her best start of the season.

The lone hit for Golden West (0-29, 0-18) was an ill-fated single by Briana Morrison to lead off the second inning. After whacking a drive to left-center field, Morrison was thrown out by center fielder Jenna Hernandez trying to stretch it into a double.

Kayla Hernandez, who walked with two outs in the fourth, was the only other Rustler to reach first base. Only two Rustlers hit the ball out of the infield.

Itwas the second complete-game shutout of the season for Chauslett-Utley, who tied her season high with six strikeouts.

OCC's Hernandez, a freshman, was three for three with three RBIs, two runs and one stolen base, while sophomore Cayla Ezelle was three for four with a walk, two RBIs and two runs for the hosts.

Briana Covarrubias was three for four with three runs and one RBI, while freshman Daria Bair was two for two with two RBIs and three runs for OCC.

Sophomore Linnea Donahugh was one for two with two stolen bases and two runs, while sophomore reserves Kaylin Etheridge (one RBI) and Montana Roelvink both singled in their only at-bats.

Golden West has now lost 41 straight games and 34 straight OEC contests, and will finish last in conference for
