MT BERRY, GA- The Millsaps Majors dropped two hard fought games on Monday to the Berry Vikings 5-4 and 9-1 in a double header that was pushed back to Monday due to weather.
In game one, the Majors continually chipped away at a Viking lead, but ran out of time. Emily Collins had a two-run scoring single as Katie Birdwell and Tiffany Havard came in to score. Birdwell scored Savannah Havard in the sixth to draw the Majors back within two at 5-3. Kaitlyn Doles got them within one with a double scoring Casey Brown. Doles represented the tying run, but the Majors couldn't push her across home.
In game two the Majors could never really get any momentum going. The bats were held silent until the fifth inning. Casey Brown was able to reach on an infield hit. She was pushed to second on a walk to Caroline Thompson and came into score on a single by Kaitlyn Doles.
The losses drop the Majors to 11-13 on the year and 4-8 in conference. They travel this weekend to Centre for a Friday-Saturday double header. First pitch on Friday is set for 5pm.
