MELBOURNE, Fla.- The #4 Florida SouthWestern Buccaneers put together their best day of the year in the biggest spot thus far, sweeping the #6 Eastern Florida State Titans 8-2 and 4-0 on the road in Melbourne to move to 23-3 on the year.

The Bucs were the aggressors early on as three of their first four hitters of the game reached base including a two run single from Senna Grootings to put FSW in front right away 2-0.

FSW added to their lead in the 3^rd as they loaded the bases with one out before Megan Veilleux drilled a triple to the wall in right to clear the bases and make it a 5-0 game. Veilleux scored three pitches later on a wild pitch and after three complete it was FSW leading the Titans 6-0.

Bucs starter Lizzy Kwakernaak continued to baffle the Titan hitters and the Bucs kept tacking on in the 4^th with another RBI from Veilleux on a sacrifice fly to right to make it 7-0 Bucs.

Eastern had their best scoring chance in the bottom of the 4^th as they loaded the bases with nobody out and pushed across a run before Kwakernaak worked her way out of the jam with a pop up and a big strikeout to keep the Bucs well out in front 7-1.

The Bucs added another run in the 6^th and the Titans made a push in their final at bats, but could only muster one as FSW finished off an 8-2 win in the opener.

Veilleux led the Bucs with four RBIs in the win while Grootings had a pair of runs scored and two RBIs. Kwakernaak went the distance in the circle, striking out six to earn the win and improve to 5-2 on the year.

Game two was a pitcher's dual early on with the teams combining for just one hit through the first three innings of action.

The Bucs broke through in the 4^th with Veilleux cracking the ice with her fifth RBI of the day and Stephanie Basso picking up a two out knock behind her to make it 2-0 FSW midway through.

The Bucs doubled their lead in the next frame as Grootings blooped in a two out single to drive home a run and Bente Zwanenburg followed suit with a single to right to make it 4-0 FSW.

Bucs starter Zoe Yzaguirre continued to deal in the bottom of the 5^th, blowing through the Titan order 1-2-3 to keep FSW in front 4-0.

Eastern made some noise in their final at bats in the 7^th, bringing the tying run to the on deck circle with two outs, but Yzaguirre dialed up her biggest pitch of the afternoon for a strikeout to finish off the shutout victory.

Yzaguirre spun a gem, allowing just two hits in the shutout to improve to 9-1 on the year. The Bucs had five of the seven hits in the contest with Zwanenburg leading the way, going 2-3 with an RBI and a run scored.
