ROME, Ga. – Berry softball swept Huntingdon in a Sunday afternoon doubleheader at Ford Field. Game scores were 11-4 and 6-3.

Berry improved to 4-2 overall. Huntingdon remained winless at 0-4.

In the opener, Berry took a quick lead, fell behind, and then used two four-run innings to rally.

Trailing 2-1 in the bottom of the second, the Vikings used consecutive sacrifice flies by Holly Todd and then Jessie Washington to go up, 3-2. Four more runs crossed the plate in the fourth and the team plated another four in the sixth--which featured four doubles.

Berry's Caillee Shamoun (2-1) worked her way out of a two-out, two-on situation to end the game as Ashlee Zachmeyer flew out to center. Shamoun went the distance and allowed seven hits four runs (two earned).

Kristen Stoll led Berry with three hits while Washington had two doubles and two runs scored. Shelby Smith also hit two doubles.

Melissa McClure (0-2) took the loss for Huntingdon and totaled 3 2/3 innings and allowed seven hits and seven runs (three earned). Lauren Welch and Zachmeyer each tallied two hits.

In the nightcap, Huntingdon used a three-run third to claim a 3-2 lead and knocked out game two starter Allie Coronado out of the game in the fourth inning. Natalie Boyd (1-0), making her pitching debut, worked around an one-out walk to escape a bases-loaded jam after she induced a Holly Ostrander flyout to center.

Boyd then scorched a game-tying RBI double to left center for her second two-base hit in as many at-bats on the afternoon. Two batters later Todd lined a tie-breaking RBI double to center to put Berry ahead, 4-3. Todd added two insurance runs in the sixth, whacking a two-triple.

Shamoun entered in relief of Boyd and earned her first save with three perfect innings. Boyd picked up the win with 2/3 of an inning. Brooke Meadows (0-2) took the loss with a complete game outing. She pitched six innings and allowed eight hits and six earned runs.

Todd led Berry with two hits and three RBIs. Gabby Alcantar and Zachmeyer each recorded two hits for Huntingdon.

"I thought we did a great job," said Berry Head Coach Cori Thiermann. "The whole team contributed in some way, which was awesome. Our pitching staff did a great job, and from a hitting standpoint, I think this was probably the first time that we felt really comfortable at the plate."

Berry will return to action in Chattanooga, Tenn., on Wednesday with a twinbill against Covenant College. First pitch will be 5 p.m.
