ASHEVILLE, N.C. – App State scored two runs in the top of the first inning and was able to add on valuable insurance runs late to defeat UNC Asheville, 7-3, at Greenwood Field, Tuesday.
The Mountaineers (16-11, 6-3) wasted no time getting on the board. Xavier Moronta led off the top of the first with a bunt single, and Austin St. Laurent reached on an error to put two men aboard. Hayden Cross then came through with a single to right to score Moronta, and later in the inning, CJ Boyd lifted a sac fly to score St. Laurent and make it 2-0.
