Game One: Charlotte 9, Iona 2
On Friday the Niners debuted their season at Robert and Mariam Hayes Stadium against the Gaels. Iona started the game a bit rusty with a few errors in the first two innings giving the Niners the opportunity to get an early lead. In the second inning, Dominick Cammarata was on second as Todd Elwood got up to bat and hit a single over to left field to get the bases loaded.
