Softball, baseball teams eager to extend win streaks

AUM’s softball and baseball teams each built momentum in Gulf South Conference play with three-game sweeps of Mississippi College over the weekend and will try to maintain it this weekend when they host Alabama Huntsville.

The 17^th-ranked Warhawks softball team opened its series with a dramatic 4-3 win that ended with back-to-back seventh-inning home runs from Shelby Newsome and Margaret Morgan. Late-game heroics proved to be the theme of the Warhawks’ series sweep, with Molly Cobb’s two-run homer in the sixth inning of Monday’s Game 3 making the difference in a 4-2 win.

AUM (17-5, 7-2 in GSC) will face UAH for a Saturday doubleheader at 1 p.m., with the series finale Sunday at 1 p.m.

The baseball team improved to 15-9 (5-4 in league play) with its three-game sweep of Mississippi College and gave head coach Marty Lovrich his 200^th career win in the process.

Zach Dew led the Warhawks at the plate in the series, batting .417 with a pair of homers, three runs and six RBIs.

AUM will open its series against UAH Friday night at 6, with a Saturday doubleheader set for 1 p.m. at Q.V. Lowe Field.
