Three run scoring bursts in each of the first three innings sparked Akron to a 14-3 victory over host Albion this afternoon in the Niagara-Orleans League softball opener.
Abby Stone had two doubles and a single, Neely Abrams two singles and a double with 5 RBIs and Darion Jonathan a single, double and triple with 3 RBIs to lead the way for Akron.
