GREENSBORO, N.C. -- The Guilford Quakers swiped two games from Meredith College softball in Saturday's doubleheader action. The host Quakers earned a 10-5 win in game one and capped off the day with a 2-0 victory over the Avenging Angels. Maria Annunziata recorded a three-run homer in the first matchup to continue her current trend this season.

Guilford's 8-0 rally in the second inning of game one placed the Quakers firmly in the lead until the top of four when Meredith responded. Brittany Bucklin doubled to right center, and Eran Artigues moved her to the corner with a single through the middle. Annunziata's home run scored both to put the Angels on the board 8-3.

Leigh Ann Charles and the Meredith defense handled the hosts during the next frame, and Sarah Watson and Erica Occena jumpstarted the top of five with a pair of singles.

Courtney Saunders worked through a pitching change to advance the runners with a sacrifice, but the Quakers ended the inning before Meredith would score.

The Angels held Guilford in the bottom of the frame and kept the bats moving in the sixth to challenge the Quakers. Annunziata led off with a walk, and rookie catcher Bryce Smith moved her to second with a single. Julia Allsbrook loaded the bases, and an error during Watson's at-bat scored Annunziata. With the bases loaded Occena walked to score Meredith's fifth and final run of the game.

With two outs in the bottom of the sixth, Guilford loaded the bases on a walk. A single from Callie Pastor scored two to secure the eventual win for GC.

Game two opened with three infield outs from the Avenging Angels to bring Guilford to the dugout. The Quakers opened the frame with a double down the leftfield line. A sacrifice placed Makayla Carver in scoring position for Caroline Barnette's single through the left side.

A walk and an error set up Guilford for another rally, but Watson threw out the potential runner at home with Madison Perry at the plate to end the inning.

Meredith out-hit the Quakers eight-to-seven during the game, but Guilford's defense held on for the sweep.

Taylor Jackson earned the loss in game one, and Lauren Marbrey moved to 1-1 on the season with a complete game pitched in the nightcap. Guilford's Maggie Shaffer collected her first win on the season in game one, and Courtney Lackey followed suit in the second.

The Avenging Angels round out the week Sunday with a doubleheader versus visiting Case Western Reserve beginning at 11 a.m. The Spartans opened the 2016 campaign today with a pair of losses to the USA South's William Peace.
