Visiting Emory Pounds Lion Baseball Team 15-0

It was all #19 nationally ranked Emory University this afternoon as the visiting Eagles handed the Piedmont College baseball team its worst loss of the season by the score of 15-0 at Loudermilk Field. EU pounded out 21 hits while the Lions could only muster a pair of hits and never had a runner reach third base.

The Eagles scored in all but two innings and never trailed en route to the 15-run victory. Ian Ganzer recorded the victory on the mound carrying a no-hitter for 5 1/3 innings before Travis Hunt broke it up with a single up the middle.

Cole Spedale recorded the only other PC hit in the bottom of the ninth on an infield single. The Lions were able to get a lone runner into scoring position in the third inning, but grounded into a double play to end the threat.

The loss drops PC to 9-15 overall. The Lions will complete the three-game weekend series tomorrow, March 25th as they travel to Atlanta, GA with game time slated for 2:00.
