MONROE, La. — Colin Schmid set the tone with a strong start, CJ Brown gave Appalachian State an early boost with a home run and Joel McDaniel provided insurance with a ninth-inning homer as the Mountaineers began their Sun Belt Conference series at ULM with a 4-1 victory Friday.
Because of forecasts for rain Sunday, the Mountaineers (10-27, 2-14) and Warhawks (17-20, 6-10) are now scheduled to play a Saturday doubleheader beginning at noon ET.
Schmid (3-4) allowed five hits, including two infield singles, and struck out six batters while allowing only an unearned run in 7.
