BANGOR, Maine — The Husson University softball team put together to impressive performances against the University of Maine at Farmington at home Saturday winning both games by 8-0 finals to remain unbeaten in North Atlantic Conference action.

The Eagles scored a run in the first inning off an RBI single by junior Kenzie Dore and added to their lead in the second inning following a Farmington miscue. 
 
Dore added to her RBI total in the third inning, crushing an opposite field three-run home run to put Husson up 5-0. Following Dore's blast, senior Katie Raymond doubled to left field scoring senior McKenna Smith to give Husson a 6-0 edge. 
 
The Eagles tallied another run in the fifth inning following an RBI groundout from freshman Lydia Rice and walked the game off in the bottom of the sixth inning on a passed ball to secure the 8-0 victory. 
 
Smith got the start for the Eagles in game one pitching six innings allowing just one hit and striking out 10 batters. With Smith's 10 strikeouts, the senior became just the third player in program history to eclipse the 400-career strikeout plateau joining Jen Jones and Amanda Pomerleau.

The Eagles began the opening frame with four-consecutive hits on just four pitches. 
 
Following two scoreless frames, the Eagles offense tallied three more runs in the fourth inning scoring on an RBI single by junior Olivia McCarty and two more runs on Gregoire's second two RBI double of the game, giving her four RBI's on the afternoon. 
 
Sophomore Tatyanna Biamby who entered as a defensive substitution in the top of the fifth drove in the Eagles seventh run of the afternoon on a single down the left field line and Dore walked the game off in the bottom of the sixth inning with an RBI double to left center.
