SPARTANBURG, S.C. -- Vanesa Flores, playing her first games as a USC Upstate Spartan, connected on two home runs and collected four RBIs and Heidi Gibbs was a perfect 6-for-6 on the day to lead Upstate to a doubleheader sweep of Anderson University Wednesday at Cyrill Stadium. The Spartans won the first game, 8-0 and the second game, 12-4. Both games were called due to the eight-run rule.

Upstate increased the lead to 6-0 in the third inning Slater drove in Baillie Denson on a sacrifice fly. Gibbs then hit a two-run homer. Upstate put an end to the game with two runs in the fifth inning. Gibbs singled with the bases loaded to drive in Denson from third and Slater scored when Jamie Amerine drew a bases loaded walk. Emily Jeffery (1-0) had a strong debut in the circle for Upstate. The freshman threw a complete game, finishing with eight strikeouts while giving up just two hits and one walk.
