Location: Demorest, Georgia - Loudermilk Field

Demorest, GA - After taking an early lead on the Hawks, the Piedmont College baseball team was unable to keep pace with Huntingdon dropping the final game of the series 6-3 at Loudermilk Field. The Lions moved to 15-8 this season and 3-6 in USA South play with the loss.

The Lions led 1-0 after a sac-fly by EVAN GRESHAM in the bottom of the first, but the Hawks came back to tie it in the fourth inning at 1-1. Huntingdon would take the lead in the fifth inning putting up five runs and ending ROSS MARTIN's day on the mound as the sophomore moved to 1-1 taking the loss.

Piedmont trailed 6-1 but added a run in the bottom of the fifth off Davidson's record-setting double and tacked on another in the eighth inning on a CALEB NORTON sacrifice fly scoring Davidson.
