NGU Unable to Maintain Lead in Close Loss to Francis Marion

Tigerville, SC - After leading for five of the first six innings, the North Greenville Crusaders were ultimately unable to hold on to the lead, giving up five runs in the 7th and going on to fall to the Patriots of Francis Marion University with a final score of 6-4 this afternoon at Ray & Bea Dillard Field. The Crusaders would take the lead early with three runs in the 2nd including a two-run double by Cory Bivins. Bivins would drive in NGU's next run in the 6th with another RBI double. However, this would go on to be North Greenville's final run of the game. Pitching would keep the Patriots in check until the 7th inning, when FMU would take the lead with five runs and also score an insurance run in the 8th. The Crusaders would get two runners on base in the bottom of the 9th, but a groundout would end the game without a run scoring. Brent Herlong, who pitched the 6th and 7th innings, took the loss.
