Harvey School Junior Pitches No-Hitter, Makes History

KATONAH, NY — Pitching history was made Monday at the Harvey School with junior Anna Buchmueller throwing a no-hitter against Marvelwood from Kent, CT in a varsity softball game at home. She struck out 13 in Harvey’s 16-1 victory. It was the team’s first win after opening the season with four losses.

According to a school spokesman, Buchmueller, a Mamaroneck resident, threw 90 pitches, 51 strikes and 39 balls in recording the no-hit game.

Five Marvelwood batters reached base — four on walks and one on a hit-by-pitch. Buchmueller allowed the one run when a Marvelwood batter reached base on a walk, stole second and third and scored on a wild pitch.

Harvey’s batters made five hits. Sophomore Tillie Glucksman of Bedford Corners had a single and led Harvey with four runs batted in. Sophomore Chloe Pinto of Eastchester had a hit and knocked in three while eighth-grader Kathryn Ogg of Bedford Corners, who also singled, had two RBI.

After taking a 1-0 lead in the first inning, Harvey put the game out of reach with a 10-run second inning. The umpires invoked the mercy rule and called the game after five innings.
