MOUNT BERRY, Ga.- No. 2-ranked Berry Softball team hit three homeruns that launched their 12-2 defeat of Millsaps in the final game of Southern Athletic Association pod play at Kay Williams Field. The Vikings will advance to the championship series that is set to take place at Kay Willaims field on May 5-6.
 
Aleeya Thornton was the first runner to get on the board when Katie White reached first on an error. Paige Bennett then brought Morgan Frye home on a sac fly, the Vikings ending the top of the first 2-0.

In the second, Morgan Frye broke the school career home run record blasting a three run bomb to center field. That homerun was the 27th of her career.

Hannah Gore struck out six batters in a row in the first two innings putting on a clinic in the circle.

Anna Jackson got a piece herself when she homered to left center, which would be the solo run of the third inning.

The Vikings tacked on two more when Katie Parker hit her first career home run and the third of the day, also scoring Grace Hamilton, now having enough runs to run-rule the majors.

But Millsaps would score two runs ruining the Vikings plans to end the game early. However in the top of the sixth Berry answered right back putting four additional points on the board.

Thornton, White, Bennett, and Hamilton all contributed the last four runs to send the Vikings to the SAA Championship series.

Gore pitched 5.1 innings in the circle allowing only three hits and striking out 10.

The Vikings will now host the Championship Round of the SAA Softball Championship.
