MOUNT BERRY, Ga. - The Vikings opened up the week with a win over LaGrange at William R. Bowdoin field, 6-3. 

With Jackson Collett on the mound LaGrange got off to a good start with two hits that brought in a run in the top of the first before two were stranded on the bases and the Vikings headed to the plate. 

Berry was unsuccessful at the plate in the bottom of the first and LaGrange tacked on another run in the top of second to go up 2-0 early. The Vikings finally answered with a big second inning scoring four runs on four hits. 

It began with a single through the left side from Charles Pulaski and Caleb Spikes walking right after. Garrett Lang loaded the bases on a single to center field that was followed by a sacrifice fly from Hayden Gilbert to score the Vikings first run. At the top of the lineup, Alex Knapp's RBI single scored the second run and a two-run triple from Nick Brunswick closed out the second with Berry on top 4-2. 

A homerun from the Panther's brought the game within one run, but the Vikings scored two in the bottom of the third to have a three run lead the remainder of the game. 

Collett finished out the fourth inning and then Mason Snyder came in relief to capture the win in the top of the fifth. Cole Porter closed the sixth and seventh and Tyler Cassidy earned the save with his performance in the eighth and ninth. 

The Vikings will return to action this weekend for an SAA series at Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee.
