CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Kelsey Gross and Harley Mullins limited Morehead State to one run on eight total hits total in Austin Peay State University's Ohio Valley Conference doubleheader sweep, Sunday afternoon, at Cathi Maynard Park-Cheryl Holt Field, as the Govs came away with 4-1 and 4-0 victories.

For Gross (4-0) it was her 12^th straight decision without a loss, tying the school record for consecutive pitching wins without a defeat, while Mullins (2-4) picked up her first career shutout as a Gov in the nightcap.

Austin Peay (8-4, 3-2 OVC) and Morehead State (4-8, 0-5 OVC) will conclude their three-game OVC series, 10 a.m., Monday.

Game 1

Austin Peay 4, Morehead State 1

The Govs jumped on Morehead State early in Game 1, with Gross driving in Kelsey Gray and Lexi Osowski with a double in the bottom of the first inning for a 2-0 lead.

That turned out to be more than enough runs for Gross, who limited the Eagles to one run on five hits in picking up the complete-game victory, while striking out four and walked two.

Morehead State's lone run came in the fourth inning, to get to within one, 2-1, but the Govs added two insurance runs in the fifth inning, with Brett Jackson driving in Gross and Alyssa Archuleta with a triple.

Game 2

Austin Peay 4, Morehead State 0

Game 2 saw the Govs once again get out to an early lead, with Gross singling in Brooke Pfefferle in the bottom of the first inning to give Austin Peay a 1-0 lead.

Mullins made that run stand up for the Govs, as she limited the Eagles to just three hits in the contest--none coming after the fourth inning--along with one walk and four strikeouts.

The Govs added to their lead in the third, with Gross once again doing the damage, this time with a two-run triple, driving in Pfefferle and Osowski to give her three RBIs in the game and five total on the day.

The Govs' final run of the day came in the fifth, with Drew Dudley bringing in Gray with a sacrifice fly for the 4-0 final margin.
