Baseball drops USA South doubleheader against N.C. Wesleyan

ROCKY MOUNT, N.C. — The Averett University baseball team lost a tightly contested 4-3 decision to N.C. Wesleyan College in the opening game of its USA South Conference doubleheader on Friday before falling 12-0 in game two. 
 
Averett (8-19, 6-8 USA South) jumped out 1-0 on N.C. Wesleyan with a run in the first inning, scoring on an RBI single by freshman Ryan Scheiderer
 
However, N.C. Wesleyan (25-6, 13-1 USA South) tied it with a run in the second inning before surrendering the lead in the sixth inning on an RBI single by freshman Logan Albertson that game Averett a 2-1 edge. 
 
Scheiderer added another run in the eighth inning with his second RBI of the game to extend the Cougars advantage to 3-1. 
 
The Battling Bishops managed to strike for three runs though in the bottom of the ninth to pick up the 4-3 walk off win. 
 
Junior Avery Spicer pitched well for the Cougars, tossing eight strong innings, allowing just six hits while striking out five batters. 
 
The Cougars finished with an 11-7 hit advantage paced by Scheiderer's and freshman Zelgin Jackson's three hit afternoons. Additionally, junior Brandon Hatcher tallied two hits for Averett and Jackson swiped a base. 
 
In game two the Battling Bishops benefitted from five runs in the first inning and another two in the second to take a commanding 7-0 lead.  
 
N.C. Wesleyan added two more runs in the fourth and a run each in the fifth, sixth and seventh inning as Averett was limited to just four hits in the doubleheader finale.
 
Hatcher finished 2-3 at the plate in game two on his way to a four hit afternoon, while also adding a stolen base in the lose. 
 
Averett returns to action on Sunday when it closes out its three-game series with N.C. Wesleyan at 2 p.m.
