Heckemeyer homers in Miners' sweep

ROLLA - Missouri S&T senior catcher Kelly Heckemeyer hit her second home run of the season Friday, leading the Miners to a 5-3 win to complete a doubleheader sweep of Bellarmine.

Heckemeyer (St. Elizabeth High School) hit a three-run home run in the bottom of the sixth inning, giving Missouri S&T a 5-2 lead. It was Heckemeyer's only hit of the doubleheader, but it helped the Miners climb back to the .500 mark in conference play.

Missouri S&T (11-16) will host Southern Indiana on Sunday.
