NORFOLK, Va. – Morgan State scored three runs in the fifth and added another four runs in the sixth to clinch the program’s first MEAC softball championship with a 10-5 win over North Carolina Central on Saturday at the NSU Softball Field on the campus of Norfolk State University.

Aliya Ewell led the way for the Bears by going 3-for-3 at the plate sitting just a home run away from completing the cycle. She also scored three runs and drive in a run for the Bears, who earn the MEAC’s automatic NCAA bid.

The 64-team NCAA field will be revealed on Sunday at 9 p.m. on ESPN2.

North Carolina Central (13-31) got on the board first on Saturday, when J. Doumas hit a solo home run to get the Eagles on the board. Hailey Batista added a solo blast of her own in the third to put the Eagles up 2-0.

Morgan State (24-15) would then take a 3-2 lead on a three-run home run from Melissa Paz that scored Haylee Bobos and Ewell. The home run was Paz’s second of the weekend and season.
