Mercer Softball: Bears Clinch Series against ETSU

Mercer grabbed both games of a double header Friday afternoon shutting out the Bucs twice to grab the series.

Mercer used solid pitching outings from Megan Bilgri and Jill McElderry Friday afternoon as each tossed shutout gems as the Bears took both games of a double header against ETSU. It's the first time Mercer is 5-0 in the Southern Conference in program history.

Mercer won the first game 2-0, and then scored all 3 of their runs in the 3rd inning of the 2nd game to hold on to a 3-0 win.

Bilgri improved to 8-4 on the year, and McElderry is now 8-2 on the season. In 14 innings, the Bears limited the Bucs to 5 hits.

Mercer will look to get the sweep with the series finale taking place Saturday at 1 p.m.
