No. 7 Catawba Uses Long Balls To Run Past No. 14 Baseball

PEMBROKE – Seventh-ranked Catawba hit three home runs in a 6-run second inning and utilized the services of six pitchers on the way to a 12-2 victory over the 14th-ranked UNC Pembroke baseball team on Tuesday evening at Sammy Cox Field.
 
The setback closed out a seven-game home stand for the Braves (27-7) who will head to St. Augustine, Fla., to put the lid on the road portion of their regular season schedule with a weekend series at Peach Belt Conference rival Flagler (9-20, 8-15 PBC). The Indians (31-7) pushed their win streak out to a dozen games with the result, and also finished off a season sweep of the Black & Gold as well.
