BETHANY, Okla. — Southern Nazarene matched Harding hit for hit in a Sunday doubleheader, but it was Harding who came out on top with a sweep.

In the opener, Harding broke a 0-0 tie in the bottom of the third with a single to left to lead 1-0 and added another in the fourth on a sacrifice bunt to lead 2-0. The Bisons added another insurance run in the sixth to lead 3-0 and sat on that lead in the seventh.
 
All of SNU's hits came from different players as Kayla Wyatt (4-6) gave up just five hits as well. The senior struck out seven and allowed three runs in six innings of work.
