The Georgia Highlands College softball team kicked off its 2026 home slate with authority on Tuesday afternoon, sweeping Snead State Community College (AL) by scores of 3-1 and 6-1 at Carol Brown Field in Cartersville.

The victories moved the Chargers to an even 2-2 mark early in the season.

In the first game, scoring stayed quiet until the bottom of the fourth inning. Ahmani Green (Worth Co. HS) started things with an infield single and promptly stole second base. Mary Cat Kimball (Haralson Co. HS) then drove her in with a sharp double to the left-center gap, giving GHC a 1-0 edge.

Snead State tied it up with a run in the fifth, but the Chargers responded decisively in the sixth. Emma Darrow (South Effingham HS) reached on an error, paving the way for Green to unleash an inside-the-park home run that restored the lead for good and sealed the 3-1 win.

Game two saw the Chargers jump ahead quickly. In the first inning, Darrow singled, took third on a left-field error, and came home on a fielder’s choice from Ansley Logan (Loganville). Logan kept the momentum rolling in the third, drawing a leadoff walk, stealing second, and scoring on another double from Green.

Haley Curtis (Dalton) then took command in the circle, delivering a complete-game masterpiece. The right-hander surrendered only one unearned run on five hits, issuing one walk while fanning six batters across seven strong innings to secure the 6-1 victory.

Georgia Highlands now heads out on the road for a busy weekend, taking part in the Northeast Alabama Classic on Friday and the Gadsden State Classic on Saturday. The Chargers return home the following Tuesday, February 17, to host Cleveland State.
