The Gamecock softball squad broke their 11-game losing streak with a 3-1 victory at Coastal Carolina on Wednesday.

Laura Mendes went 2-for-5 with two RBI and P.J. Fulmer was 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI.  Fulmer gave the Gamecocks a 1-0 lead with her RBI single in the fourth but Coastal tied the game in the bottom of the inning.

Neither team could score again through seven, sending the game to extra innings.  Mendes put an end to things with a home run in the top of the 9th finally putting South Carolina on top, 3-1.
