CLINTON, Miss. --- Jeremy Haworth reached a career milestone on Saturday, March 22, earning his 300th career victory as Mississippi College baseball delivered a dominant doubleheader sweep of Trevecca Nazarene University. With 12-4 and 12-6 wins, the Choctaws secured their second Gulf South Conference series sweep of the season, improving to 21-9 overall and 13-5 in GSC play.

MC tallied 16 hits, with Vance leading the way, going 3-for-5 with four RBI. Evans drove in three runs as he joined Bryce LaRocca, Korey Cooper, and Cade Gadman each collecting two.
 
On the mound, Kyle Collet (1-0) earned his first win of season with three scoreless innings in relief. Collet fanned a pair and allowed three hits in the appearance. Dylan Cope tossed two shutout innings to seal the win.
 
The Choctaws struck early again in the finale, plating five runs in the first inning, highlighted by LaRocca's solo home run and a two-run single from Beau Kirsch. LaRocca finished 2-for-3 with three RBI, while Bryce Capobianco added a three-run homer in the second to push the lead to 7-1.
