Jarvis Christian sweeps XULA; Gold Nuggets visit NAIA No. 13 Texas A&M-Texarkana Sunday

        HAWKINS, Texas — Jarvis Christian ended Xavier University of Louisiana's school-record six-game softball winning streak with 3-0 and 4-1 Red River Athletic Conference victories Saturday.
        Monique Montes pitched a one-hitter and struck out 11 for the Lady Bulldogs (18-19 overall, 6-12 RRAC) in the first game. Yasmine Rivera followed with a four-hitter.
        Also pitching complete games were XULA's Brittany Ensley (first game) and Vannity Robles. Both allowed five hits, and only one of the runs Robles allowed was earned.
        Ensley had XULA's only hit, a single, in the first game. The Gold Nuggets scored their second-game run when Shay Angelle and McKenzie Guillory hit consecutive doubles in the fifth inning to cut Jarvis Christian's lead to 2-1.
        XULA and Jarvis Christian split their four-game regular-season series. The Gold Nuggets' record win streak started with 5-0 and 9-1 home victories March 27 against the Lady Bulldogs.
        XULA (15-22, 11-9) will stay on the road and visit NAIA No. 13 Texas A&M-Texarkana (28-8, 12-4) at 1 p.m. Sunday. It will be XULA's third RRAC doubleheader in as many days.
