The Anoka-Ramsey Community College Golden Rams swept their season opening doubleheader against DCTC on Friday, March 3, by the scores of 4-1 and a 7-0 mid-game forfeit.

Game one was tied 0-0 going into the top of the 3^rd when the Golden Rams manufactured a run on a walk from Emma Bright along with two stolen bases and a throwing error. The game stayed 1-0 until the top of the 5^th when ARCC put together two singles by Emma Hurd and Hailey Babcock and then a monstrous 3-run home run by Lyla Galli to give the Golden Rams a 4-0 lead.

The team could only muster seven hits but three of those came from Hurd along with three stolen bases. Molly Gross picked up her 1^st win of the season in the circle striking out 10 and only allowing 4 hits.

Game two started out as a back-and-forth battle early with both teams taking a share of the lead until the bottom of the 3^rd inning when the Golden Rams put up four runs highlighted by a two-out bases loaded single by Gross.

The team led 5-4 in the top of the 4^th inning when DCTC had an injured player and was unable to finish the game due to not having 9 healthy players. This then resulted in the game being stopped an Anoka-Ramsey was awarded a 7-0 forfeit.

The Golden Rams are now 2-0 on this young season. They begin their Florida spring trip on Friday, March 10 when they will play 11 games in five days before returning back home to play in the M-Health Fairview Dome at the National Sports Center on Monday, March 20.
