No. 5 North Greenville Tops No. 22 Baseball In Series Opener

PEMBROKE – Fifth-ranked North Greenville amassed 19 hits, including a trio of home runs, to help support a quality start from right-hander Jax Cash, and the Crusaders cruised to a 15-1 victory over the 22nd-ranked UNC Pembroke baseball team in Friday's series opener at Sammy Cox Field.
 
The setback snapped a 10-game home win streak for the Braves (22-9, 13-3 CC) who managed just three hits on the night. It was the 10th-straight win for the Crusaders (28-5, 16-3) who improved to 15-2 on the road this season with the outcome as well.

TOP 2 North Greenville put a pair of runners into scoring position with one out in the third inning, and knotted the score back up on Jax Cash's RBI groundout. Consecutive run-scoring hits by Darrien Whitaker and Cory Bivins gave the visitors the lead for good.
