Julia Gossett struck out 14 and pitched a five-hit shutout Friday night as undefeated Massillon Jackson beat host Louisville 5-0.

Gossett, a junior Purdue commit, struck out 11 of the first 12 batters she faced and didn't allow any walks.

Jackson (7-0) leadoff hitter Megan Magee set the table for the offense, going 2-for-4 and scoring three runs, and Mara Kachur drove in two.

Louisville (2-4) freshman Caitlin Thouvenin doubled off Gossett for the Leopards' lone extra-base hit.
