Baseball Completes Sweep

WINCHESTER, Va. - For the second straight day, No. 8/20 Shenandoah University used a sixth inning rally to push itself past Greensboro College for a USA South Conference baseball victory.

Also for the second straight day, the GC defense failed the Pride as the Hornets (7-3, 2-2 USA South) completed the sweep with a 7-6 win.

Greensboro (4-8, 0-4) committed a pair of errors in the sixth inning Sunday which allowed all three SU runs to be unearned.

The Hornets, who were trailing 5-2 heading into the bottom of the fifth, saw designated hitter Cory Nelson get things started in the sixth with a single through the left side off of Pride reliever Cory Saulsbury (1-2).

After Mike Smith sacrificed pinch runner Kurt Krout to second, GC second baseman Bobby Amato failed to come up with Keaton Neeb's groundball at second base, allowing Kraut to come all the way around for the tying run.

A stolen base and a groundout came next before junior Kevin Brashears gave Shenandoah a lead it would not relinquish by driving in Neeb with a single to right.

Brashears eventually scored what proved to be the game-winning run after stealing second base and coming home on Jon Holcomb's single to right.

The rally made winner of junior Bobby Stefanowicz (2-0), who came on in relief in the middle of the fourth and allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and one walk in 3 2/3.

Sophomore Kyle Scallion recorded the final four outs for the Hornets, registering his second save in as many days and his third of the spring. His first out, a strikeout, came with the tying run on third base in the bottom of the eighth.

In the ninth, Scallion sandwiched his second K around a pair of groundouts to second.

Holcomb, Jesse Henry and Scott Van Dusseldorp all had two hits each for the hosts with Matt Parker going 2 for 5 with 3 RBI for the Pride.

Shenandoah hosts PSU-Harrisburg on Monday at 3 in a non-league game.
