The Emory softball team had its offense in high gear on Sunday, combining for 17 runs and 18 hits in a doubleheader sweep of Huntingdon College.  The Eagles captured the opener, 10-2 in six innings before posting a 7-0 win in the finale.

In the first game, sophomore Ellyn Kocoloski went 4-for-4 at the plate with a pair of RBIs while freshman Lauren Gorodetsky picked up a couple of hits with three RBIs.  Freshman Lena Brottman picked up the win on the mound, tossing all six innings and fanning nine while issuing just two walks.  Emory struck first with three runs in the bottom of the third inning with a two-run double by freshman Megan Light the key blow.  The Eagles added single runs in the fourth, that coming on a solo homer by sophomore Dana Goodenough, and in the fifth to take a 5-0 lead.  After the Hawks put up a pair of runs in their half of the sixth, Emory closed the game out in the bottom of the frame with a five-run explosion.  After a bases-loaded walk to Jessica Thomas scored Brittany Boeshore, Gorodetsy followed with a triple down the left field line that scored three runners.  Kocoloski then drove in the final run with an infield single that scored Gorodetsky.

In the second game, Gorodetsky continued her hot hitting with three hits while scoring a pair of runs.  Thomas and Kocoloski each came through with a pair of RBIs while freshman Claire Bailey added a pair of hits.  Junior Bridget Holloway came on in relief in the first inning and picked up the win, hurling seven innings and allowing just six hits while striking out two.  Kocoloski knocked in the game's first run when her ground out pushed Gorodestky across the plate in the first inning.   The Eagles blew the game wide open in the fifth inning by scoring five times, the first two coming via a Thomas single on a 1-1 pitch.  The Eagles would score once more in the sixth when a sacrifice fly scored Gorodetsky.

The Eagles return to action next Saturday and Sunday (Feb. 19-20) when they host the Emory Classic.
