DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Sabrina Anguiano's three-hit shutout in the opener and an eight-run outburst in the second game's fourth inning helped Bethune-Cookman sweep North Carolina Central 4-0, 9-2 in a Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference doubleheader Saturday at Sunnyland Park.

Anguiano (4-12) walked none and struck out five as she recorded her first shutout of the season and the team' first since Deidra Genera blanked Liberty 8-0 on opening day back on Feb. 12.

In the second game, Mariah Davis and Melissa Berouty each drove in two runs as the Wildcats erased a 2-0 deficit. Bryanna Campos added a solo homer in the fifth.

After Bethune-Cookman tied it 2-2 on an RBI double from Ortega and Bakenhus drawing a  bases-loaded walk that scored Berouty,  Campos scored on a wild pitch to give the Wildcats the lead.
