Belhaven Takes Down Schreiner in Doubleheader Sweep

JACKSON, Miss. - The Belhaven Softball team improved to 4-0 this season with Saturday's doubleheader sweep of Schreiner at Jim McLeod Field. The Blazers took down the Mountaineers 5-0 in Game One before taking the back end of the twin bill with a 6-1 victory.

GAME ONE

The Blazers opened the day with their second shutout victory of the season, picking up a 5-0 win over Schreiner behind a strong effort in the circle from Kennedy Carruth. The Blazers got the bats going early, striking for a pair of runs in the 1st behind an RBI single from Allie Gordon and a bases loaded hit by pitch with Sarah Stockstill at the plate.

Belhaven would be held quiet at the plate until the 5th inning, when they struck for three runs with Allie Gordon picking up her second RBI of the day and Kennedy Carruth delivering an RBI hit along with Ellie Jones.

GAME TWO

Looking for a sweep of the Mountaineers, Belhaven sent Belle West to the circle in the second game of the doubleheader. After a clean 1st inning, West got consistent run support from the Belhaven offense, starting in the 2nd inning when Mary Moore Widemire drove in the first run of the game with an RBI single.

Belhaven picked up another run in the 3rd behind an RBI single from Ellie Jones before making it a 3-0 lead with an RBI triple from Macy Funderburk in the 4th frame. Belhaven sealed the win in the 5th inning with a three run frame that put them up 6-0 on the Mountaineers who could only pull one run back in the final moments.
