BRIDGEWATER, Va. – In an ODAC doubleheader at the BC Softball Field, it took the Bridgewater College (25-8, 10-6 ODAC) bats a few innings to come alive, but when they did the runs came in a barrage as the Eagles swept visiting Sweet Briar. In game two, sophomore Summer Ramsey came two outs from the perfect game, but notched the five-inning no-hit win for the Eagles.
