Here is Saturday's College Report: Sam Berghoff sets IWU homer record, Wiegand throws no-hitter

Sam Berghoff set the career home run record and Ally Wiegand pitched a no-hitter as Illinois Wesleyan's softball team won twice Saturday in the NFCA Leadoff Classic at Tucson, Ariz.

Berghoff's 33rd career homer, a solo shot, helped IWU to a 4-0 win over Emory & Henry. Wiegand (2-1) tossed a no-hitter, striking out 13 and walking none. A Titan error kept her from her second perfect game of the season. Shelby Fulk, Lexy Trammell, Hannah Heraty and Brittany Murphy each had two hits.

Fifth-ranked IWU (5-1) then handed No. 2 Christopher Newport (12-1) its first loss with a 7-1 victory.
