GEORGETOWN, Texas - The Pirates sent the lone senior, Katelyn Gola, away from her home field for the last time in style with two wins, 3-1 and 7-1, to complete the sweep of Hendrix College.

After a scoreless first in game one Hendrix loaded the bases with two outs, attempting to post the first run of the game. Kara Solomon worked Vaughan to a full count but drew a walk to push one run across the plate giving Hendrix a 1-0 lead after one and a half innings.

Southwestern equaled things up in the bottom half of the inning when Lyndsy Maus helped her own cause with a single to centerfield bringing in pinch runner Taylor Blair.

Hendrix threatened again in the third but Maus worked her way out of the jam and SU took advantage at the plate taking the lead on a sacrifice fly to deep left field by Blair Wallace that brought in Amanda Ambrose. After three innings of play Southwestern had the 2-1 advantage.

Both teams got runners in scoring position in the ensuing innings but neither could drive them home until Haley Hughes was brought home on a perfectly executed squeeze bunt by Maus, extending the Pirates’ lead to two, 3-1, heading into the final inning.

The Warriors placed runners on base in the final inning but Maus got the final batters to fly out to end the game and earn the victory.

Southwestern had nine hits including a 3-3 performance from Hughes while HC had five hits by five different players.

Hendrix took an early lead in game two with a homerun by Byler in the second inning. Once again the Pirates responded, this time scoring three runs with two outs in their half on the inning.

Maus scored one more to help herself on the mound with a single up the middle driving in Hughes from second base, extending the lead to three 4-1.

The Warriors continued to press, loading the bases with two outs in the fourth inning, but Maus forced a ground out to Katelyn Gola, once again holding the Warriors at bay. SU pushed three more runs across in their half of the inning to move their lead to six, 7-1.

Southwestern closed out the game by holding Hendrix scoreless in the final five innings, sweeping the series.
