WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Hampton University softball team opened conference play on Saturday with a doubleheader sweep over rival Howard, winning the first game 5-1 before taking the second game 7-2.
 
The Lady Pirates improved to 7-13 overall and 2-0 in MEAC play this season.
 
Hampton struck first in the top of the first inning of the first game; after Taylor Warrick led off the game with a single, she went on to steal second base. Then she stole third before scoring on an errant throw to give the Lady Pirates a 1-0 lead.

After Howard tied the game at 1-1 in the bottom of the first, Allyson Babinsack gave Hampton the lead back in the top of the fourth, singling home Quierra Bradford to give the Lady Pirates a 2-1 lead. A Warrick RBI triple and a Bradford RBI single in the fifth grew the lead to 4-1.
 
Hampton added another run in the seventh, when Warrick led the inning with a triple and then scored on a sac fly from Alana Vandenburg.
 
Warrick and Bradford each went 3-for-4 at the plate in the first game.
 
Babinsack struck out five and scattered four hits over seven innings to pick up her fourth win of the season.
 
Howard held a 1-0 lead after an inning in the second game, before the Lady Pirates answered with a run in the top of the second. An RBI single from Morgan Crawford tied the game at 1-1, before Howard took a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the frame on an Imani Ballard home run.
 
Hampton pushed across two runs in the top of the fourth, taking a 3-2 lead after Jada Fields scored on an error and Brianna scored on an RBI groundout.
 
Anderson also scored in the sixth on a double steal to give the Lady Pirates a 4-2 lead.
 
It was the first of four runs in the inning for Hampton, which then got a two-run home run from Babinsack, her first of the season, and an RBI groundout from Warrick.
 
Anderson went 3-for-4 at the plate in the second game, while Crawford and Babinsack each drove in two runs.
 
Allie Hotetz picked up the win, her third of the season. Babinsack struck out five in relief.
