BOONE, N.C. – In what was the team's first home game of the season and first contest at its new facility, the App State Softball team got out to an early lead after a third-inning double, but couldn't make it stand up as the Georgia Southern Eagles scored five times in the final three innings to claim a 5-3 win at Sywassink/Lloyd Family Stadium on Friday. The Mountaineers scored two runs in the final inning of play, but important seventh-inning insurance runs provided the Eagles the right amount of cushion to secure the win.
App State (9-19, 0-4 SBC) tallied the first hit and the first RBI at its new stadium in the third inning.
