Sophomore Micah Scharff helped the No. 2-ranked Eagles' softball team to a pair of wins over Covenant College.
In the opener of the twinbill against the Scots, Scharff went
3-for-3 at the plate with all of her hits the extra-base
variety. She also knocked in five runs and scored
twice. She socked a three-run homer in the top of the first
that staked Emory to a 3-0 lead before accounting for another
Emory run with a two-out triple in the fourth
inning. She recorded her final RBI with a double in the
sixth. In the nightcap, Scharff walked in her only trip to
the plate and scored the team's second run in an 11-0 triumph
before being lifted.
A starter in 31 of the 35 games she has seen action in this season,
Scharff is hitting .323 with 31 hits (third on the team) in 96
trips to the plate. She has driven in 18 runs and is
second on the team with nine doubles.
