MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – The Georgia College Softball team (29-15, 15-5 PBC) won two vastly different games Sunday in sweeping USC Aiken (20-22-1, 7-15 PBC) 3-1 and 10-7 at the Peeler Complex.

Game one was a solid pitchers' duel, as sophomore Kayla Price (Indian Land, South Carolina) went toe-to-toe with USCA's Chandler Terrapin. Price allowed five hits and four walks for just one unearned run in the victory. She added three strikeouts, improving to 17-4.

The Bobcats got the scoring started in the first on a Faith Flanders (Dublin) single. Holland Coursey (Sugar Hill) added an RBI single herself in the third, and after one more hit, Baylee Hall (Hephzibah) plated a run on a squeeze bunt to cap the scoring for GC Softball. The Pacers cracked the scoring column in the fifth on a Bobcat error, then had the tying run on the basepaths in both the sixth and seventh, but couldn't get a clutch hit. Flanders finished 2-for-3 with the RBI.

Game two was a wild contest with each team posting a six-run inning. The Bobcats got theirs in the first, and the Pacers answered to tie the game in the third. The deciding inning was the three-run Bobcat fourth, which Holland Coursey started with a double. After an out, Hall drove her home with a single, and Hannah Coursey (Sugar Hill) followed with a run-scoring triple to right. A Brooke Taylor (Powder Springs) groundout brought home Hannah Coursey for a 9-6 lead.

The teams traded runs in the fifth for the 10-7 final. Taylor (5-7) got the win with 4 2/3 innings of solid relief, scattering five hits and five walks for just one unearned run. She fanned three.

Centerfielder Danielle Bernstein (Cumming) set the table well from the leadoff spot, going 3-for-4 with two runs. Bernstein now has 200 career hits, just the fifth member of the 200-hit club at Georgia College. She joins Whitney Okvist (2014), Abi LeRoy (2016), Diana Baruffa (2006) and Aundrea Baker (2006).

Holland Coursey had three hits as well, scoring twice and driving in one, while Hannah Coursey posted a 2-for-3 effort with two RBIs and two runs. Third baseman Amber Coy (Warner Robins) also had two hits in three trips, plating a pair.

The win puts Georgia College at 15-5 in Peach Belt Conference (PBC) play, good for third in the league standings. The Bobcats are just one game behind PBC leader No. 17 Armstrong State University in the loss column. The Bobcats have clinched a PBC Tournament spot, and can finish no lower than seventh, depending on how the remainder of the regular season finishes out.

The Bobcats are back in action Tuesday, April 11 at 2 p.m., traveling to Armstrong State.
