Baseball Falls in Walk-Off Fashion Against Georgia Southwestern State

AMERICUS, Ga. -- After struggling to manufacture runs in the opening stretch of the game, the Auburn University at Montgomery baseball team scored two runs in the top of the eighth inning to draw even at 3-3. Georgia Southwestern State found an answer, however, as the Hurricanes clubbed a walk-off double in the last of the 10th inning to escape 4-3 win over the Warhawks on Wednesday night at Hurricane Stadium.

Zach Dew went 2-for-4 with two singles as the only Warhawk to tally multiple hits in the ballgame.
