Wright State collected six hits off of Amanda Macenko, but could not dent the scoreboard as Cleveland State hit three home runs in winning the series finale 6-0 in Horizon League action at the WSU Softball Field Sunday afternoon.
Natalie DeMatteis reached on a fielder's choice as Amanda Houchin scored for CSU in the first and the Vikings extended the lead to 4-0 in the third as Houchin homered to left and Christina Stoffer hit a two-run shot to right center.
Cleveland State rounded out the scoring with two more in the sixth on a Lia Gordon two-run home run to left center.
Macenko (8-7) struck out six and did not walk a batter as she threw 86 total pitches, 70 of those for strikes.
Katie Kine paced the Raider offense with two hits.
Wright State (10-12, 1-2 Horizon) hosts Eastern Michigan Tuesday for a 2:00 doubleheader.
