Taylor Guidry and Delilah Pacheco each pounded out four hits as the Blinn softball team swept Coastal Bend Saturday at Hohlt Park.

The Buccaneers run-ruled the Lady Cougars 11-0 in Game 1 of Saturday’s doubleheader, then completed the sweep with a 6-2 victory in Game 2.

Blinn wasted no time jumping ahead with all 11 runs in the first two innings, started by a two-run double by freshman Jaiden Rawls. Allie Piro hit a two-run triple to make it a 4-0 game and Avery Mullendore drove Piro home with a single to left.

Pacheco, Rawls, Piro, Mullendore and Sydney Wellmann each had two hits. Piro drove in four runs.

Freshman pitcher Mariah Gibson coasted through the Coastal Bend lineup through five innings. She allowed two hits and walked one en route to her 10th win of the season.

Coastal Bend found some life in its offense with a run in the first inning of Game 2, but Blinn crossed three runs in the bottom half of the frame, including a two-run double by Rawls.

Rawls tossed the complete game and allowed two runs on seven hits and struck out three. She finished 1-for-4 at the plate with two RBI.

Guidry had two hits and Pacheco finished 2-for-3 with a run scored and RBI.
