App State Outlasted by UNC Asheville

BOONE, N.C. – App State came from behind to tie three different times in the ballgame, but an eighth inning home run from UNC Asheville proved to be the decisive blow in a, 7-6, loss to the Bulldogs Tuesday at Smith Stadium.

Trailing 6-4 in the fifth inning, Golston Gillespie was hit by a pitch to begin the frame. One batter later, Dylan Rogers blasted his fourth home run of the season over the visitor's bullpen in right field, to tie the score in a seesaw battle through the middle innings.
