Baseball 'cats drop two more in Florida

Roosevelt 18, West Virginia Wesleyan 7 (game 1)

Auburndale, FL-in a game with insulting fireworks fell West Virginia Wesleyan on Sunday on her Spring Break tour through Florida on Roosevelt 17: 8.

Roosevelt gave the tone with a first-class first inn with an explosive 11 run and used a combination of timely goals and defense errors in Wesleyan. The Bobcats were in an early deficit and tried to keep up despite a rally in the late game.

Wesleyan's offense was led by Alex Smith, who collected two goals, an RBI and a run achieved. Grant Smith also contributed to two goals and three RBIs, while Ethan Fraley crossed the plate three times. The biggest increase in Bobcats came in the seventh inning, where they urged five runs, but it wasn't enough to overcome Roosevelt's dominating start.
