Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 BRUNSWICK, Ga.- Savannah State broke from their SIAC schedule and took a trip down I-95 to Brunswick to play Coastal Georgia in a non-conference doubleheader on Tuesday afternoon at the CCGA Softball Field.

The Mariners won the first game 12-2 and completed the sweep with a 5-0 victory in the second game.

Savannah State scored both of their runs in the top of the fifth.

Neveah Ford reached base on an error by the pitcher and then stole second and third. After Ansley Hudson drew a walk, a ground-out by Ariadna Diaz-Jimenez allowed Ford to score. Ambria Guye reached base on an error by the first baseman which allowed Hudson to cross home plate.
