MT. PLEASNT, S.C. - - Charleston scored 10 runs on eight hits in the bottom of the fourth inning in support of Samantha Martin's two-hit shutout as the host Cougars closed out the second day of their own tournament with an 11-0 five-inning victory over Army Saturday evening at Patriots Point.

The Cougars (2-1) jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the first inning without the benefit of a hit. After being held hitless over the first three frames, Charleston raked two Army pictures for eight hits in a 10-run fourth inning flurry to pull out to an insurmountable 11-0 lead. Brianna Davis capped that frame with a two-run double.

Martin (1-0), who was touched for a hit in the first inning on Aleee Rashenskas' one-out single and third frame on Hailey Megge's infield hit, retired 12 straight Black Knights for her first win of the season. She struck out one and did not issue a walk to the 17 batters she faced.

The Black Knights, 2-2 at the Charleston Challenge, close out the three-day invitational Sunday morning against UMass-Lowell.

Among the starters, Megge is batting .400 (4-for-10)and Xiomara Perez and Kasey McCravey are hitting .385 as both are 5-for-13 at the plate. McCravey has driven in five runs, Emily Gray has four RBI and Perex is next with three.
