After a tough day at the plate Saturday in Conway, Ark., Berry came back in a big way Sunday in the series finale against Hendrix, taking a 13-2 run-rule win in seven innings in Southern Athletic Association baseball action.

The Vikings (22-11, 11-4 SAA) maintained second position in the SAA with the final two series' of the regular season set to feature the teams that they are sandwiched between in the standings. Berry hosts Rhodes for a three-game set this Friday and Saturday before travelling to face Birmingham-Southern the following weekend to close the regular season.

Berry pounded out 14 hits Sunday, with the first one leaving the yard. Wesley Wade connected for a solo homer, his fifth blast of the year, which gave the Vikigns a 1-0 lead in the first. Hendrix (24-8, 9-6 SAA) tied the game an inning later with a sacrifice fly, with both teams scoring single runs in the third to make it 2-2.

In the fifth, the Vikings started to pull away with five runs. John D'Amelio brought in a pair with a single into right to make it 4-2, then after a walk loaded the bases, a triple by Levi Cloud on a full count pitch set the merry-go-round in motion and made it a 7-2 contest in favor of the guests.

Andrew Pendleton's second RBI of the game came in the sixth on a ground out to second that made it 8-2. Later in the inning, Trace Cate singled to right to make it a 9-2 contest.

With the team ready to get on the bus a little early and head for home, the Vikings scored four in the seventh to put the game away early. RBI knocks by Zachary Hardee, Jack Poist, Joey Garcia, and Wade made it a 13-2 contest.

That would be enough for Andrew Norred (4-1), who entered in relief in the fourth inning and pitched four scoreless innings of baseball. Norred allowed just two hits and a walk in picking up the victory on the mound for Berry.

The Vikings will hit the road for their final mid-week game of the season this Tuesday when they travel to take on Covenant. First pitch in Lookout Mountain, Ga., is set for 3 p.m.
