FLORENCE, SC - Senior shortstop Kat Beauvais delivered a game-winning two-run double in game one and then scored three times and recorded two runs batted in during game two as Francis Marion University swept a non-conference softball doubleheader from Limestone College 3-1 and 9-1, Wednesday afternoon (Feb. 17).

Francis Marion improves to 7-1 overall, while the Saints drop to 1-3.

Senior southpaw Michaela Wolf (7-0) pitched a pair of complete games, allowing only one unearned run on three hits in game one and one earned run on three hits in the second contest.  She fanned a combined nine batters. 

In the opener, Beauvais' two-run double to left centerfield in the fifth inning erased a1-0 Saints' lead.  Limestone had taken the 1-0 lead in the second frame on a solo home run by first baseman Kirstyn Burleson.  She also collected one of Limestone's other two safeties.

FMU added an insurance run in the sixth when pinch runner Kayla Bowie scored on a throwing error.

Right-hander Emily Wallace (0-2) was the loser, although she only allowed three hits and two earned runs.

FMU scored seven runs in the second frame of game two to snap a 1-1 deadlock.  Beauvais was 2-for-2 with the three runs scored and two knocked in.  Wolf drilled a three-run homer as part of the second-inning outburst.

Limestone starter Shelby Webb (0-1) was tagged with the loss.  Second baseman Kayla Hamalainen was 2-for-2 to lead the Saints, and she drove in the lone run with a line-drive single off the first baseman's glove.

FMU third baseman Jessica Hogan finished the twinbill with three hits, two runs scored, and one RBI.

FMU will play a doubleheader at Mount Olive College on Sunday at 1 p.m.
