Box Score The North Greenville Crusaders began their 2022 season on a strong note, taking care of the Choctaws of Mississippi College with a final score of 12-4 on a very cold day in Clinton, Mississippi. A two-run homer by John Michael Faile in the 1st was the only scoring in the first four innings, but NGU would pull away further with four runs in the 4th and three runs in the 6th, all unanswered. North Greenville ran into some trouble in the bottom of the 6th as MC responded with four runs with one of them unearned. In the 8th, the Crusaders scored three insurance runs to hit double digits in the run column. Reece Fields, Grayson Hickert, Noah Takac, and Andrew Kaminsky all combined for just four runs and four hits allowed. Reece Fields was the winning pitcher.
