Blue Hose Sweep Eagles in a Doubleheader

CLINTON, S.C. – The Presbyterian Blue Hose (29-11, Big South: 14-6) swept the Winthrop Eagles (17-29, Big South: 10-10) in a doubleheader at the PC Softball Complex on Saturday afternoon. The Blue Hose behind the hitting of Morgan Hess and the pitching of Jenna Greene posted a 5-0 shutout win in game one. Presbyterian behind solid pitching from Hess and three RBIs from Lath Freeman defeated Winthrop, 4-3, in game two.
