BOONE, N.C. — For the second straight year, Appalachian State Baseball has set a program record for season tickets sold.
Last year, a 2013 ticket record set following an NCAA Regional run was broken, and that total has been topped for 2019 at Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium.
The Mountaineers opened their home schedule over the weekend and took two of three games from Manhattan, with a 14-5 win accounting for their most runs in a game since 2015. Will Sprinkle took a no-hitter into the seventh inning of a series-opening victory.
"It is very fitting that we get this news coming off the great crowds that we had this weekend," third-year App State head coach Kermit Smith said.
