Ferrum Rallies Past Baseball
FERRUM, Va. - Ferrum College scored a pair of eighth-inning runs
Sunday afternoon on its way to a 6-4 USA South Conference baseball
victory over Shenandoah.
The Panthers (11-11, 3-5 USA South) took the early lead with three
runs in the first only to see SU (24-5, 4-4) score one run in the
second and three more in the third.
The Hornets carried that lead into the seventh, where FC finally
chased Shenandoah starter Josh Simons by putting runners on the
corners with two outs.
SU skipper Kevin Anderson turned to reliever Bryce Sears, who
loaded the bases with by hitting centerfielder Travis Crump.
Anderson then brought in closer Gage Levac (1-3), who induced a
groundball to second that allowed Crump to score on.
In the eighth, Jesse Fuller ended up scoring the game-winning run
by leading off with a double to right and coming up on a Jason
Butterworth single.
Juniors Jesse Henry and Scott Van Dusseldorp both two hits for the
