Kats complete sweep of McNeese

HUNTSVILLE — The Sam Houston softball team closed out an impressive three-game Southland Conference sweep of McNeese with a pair of shutouts Saturday at the Bearkat Softball Complex.
 
The Bearkats (7-13, 4-2 in SLC) scored four runs in the fourth inning to back freshman Mika Vento's one-hitter in the circle to take game one of the doubleheader 6-0. Sophomore Regan Dunn homered and tossed seven scoreless innings in series finale as Sam Houston topped the Cowgirls 4-0.
 
It is just the third time in 10 years McNeese (10-17, 2-4) has been swept in a three-game Southland Conference series, and the Bearkats did it by outscoring the Cowgirls 16-1.
 
Game 2
Sam Houston 6, McNeese 0
The Bearkats busted up a pitching duel by scoring four runs in the bottom of the fourth inning to secure the series victory in game two Saturday.
 
Senior Megan McDonald got the inning going with a lead-off walk, and senior Brooklyn Devine followed with a single up the middle. Senior Brooke Malia loaded the bases with a bunt single, and freshman Kylie Hobbs made it 1-0 with an RBI single through the right side.
 
With two outs, freshman Courtney White hit an infield single to short to bring in another run, and freshman Hannah Schaeffer capped the scoring with a two-run double down the left field line.
 
Freshman Mika Vento in the meantime, held McNeese to one hit with six strikeouts to improve to 3-2 on the season.
 
Sam Houston added two more runs in the fifth when freshman Emily Telg stole home and Malia drove in Devine on another bunt single.
 
Game 3
Sam Houston 4, McNeese 0
The Bearkats scored a run on a three-base error in the bottom of the first inning which would prove to be enough as Sam Houston completed the series sweep in the finale.
 
Senior Megan McDonald drew a lead-off walk for the second game in a row and came all the way around to score on a throwing error by the pitcher on a ground ball by senior Brooklyn Devine.
 
Sophomore Regan Dunn helped her own cause in the fifth when she blasted a lead-off home run to right field to make it 2-0. She also tossed a shutout and allowed only three hits to go along with three strikeouts to improve to 4-3 in the circle this season.
 
Freshman Ellie Grill and sophomore Kyndal Kutac added RBI singles in the bottom of the sixth to cap the scoring.
 
The Bearkats will host No. 24 Baylor on Tuesday at 6:30 p.m.
