The evening turned sour for UV almost immediately in the game, when they gave a quick 9-runs in the first inning.

“I had three guys pitch tonight (Payton Stirone, Hunter Christian, and Teddy Postman), Nick Stirone and Payton Stirone really did a bang up job out there. We really have had no real practice outside, but Payton had two doubles and two RBI's, he did a great job. We didn’t give up, and we got our runs in the sixth and seventh innings,” said Miller.

Miller explained that Hancock's starting pitcher really got to his team early, once the relief pitcher was brought, UV started to get some better looks.

Andrew Jackson recorded a double, Payton Stirone had two doubles and two RBI's with scored 2 runs, while Adam Lamont and Jake Grant each had a double.

Hancock is really good program, hopefully we can keep grinding and working. We made some good plays and then some really bad ones,” said Miller.

UV will travel to Walton tomorrow at 4:30 p.m. in search of their elusive first win on the season.

Bainbridge-Guilford baseball

BAINBRIDGE – The Bobcats suffered a heartbreaking defeat at home when they fell to visiting Deposit at 6-3.

BG would jump out to a quick 2-0 lead in the first inning when Hyzer hit in two RBI's; before fizzling out later on, as they failed to earn another run until the fifth inning.

Deposit would not see the success come their way right away, however, a dreadful fifth inning for BG allowed Deposit into the game giving them five runs in just that one inning.

BG will host Unatego later on today at 4:30 p.m. as they attempt to secure a fourth win.

Bainbridge-Guilford softball

BAINBRIDGE – The lady Bobcats found themselves in a 1-0 game until the top of the third inning, this inning allowed Deposit to run away with the game winning 9-1.

Palmatier's hit was the lone recorded hit on the night for the Bobcats, in a night where the offense just wasn’t clicking.

Riley Smith pitched the duration of the game for BG only giving up 8 hits on the night.
