The Berry College baseball team (16-12-1) defeated Covenant College (9-15) for the second time this season at William R. Bowdoin Field on Tuesday night.


Alex McGill led the Vikings’ offense going 3-for-4 with two RBIs.


Three other Berry players added two hits in the win. They were Austin Haight (2-for-4), Grant Perkins (2-for-4) and Ben Jernigan (2-for-3).
