Wolfpack bats stay hot, crush Longwood, 19-3

A six-run second inning was all NC State needed to put away the Longwood Lancers, but it wasn’t all they did. Wolfpack bats stayed hot, pounding out 19 runs on 18 hits on the way to a 19-3 beatdown of their Big South opponent.

NC State has now scored 74 runs over their first five games of the season.

Fourteen Pack hitters took a turn at the dish in this one with ten of them registering hits. Thirteen of those Pack hitters either scored or drove in a run, or both.

Leading the way for State in this one were three-hit efforts by Devonte Brown (3-for-4, 2B, HR, 4 R, 3 RBI, BB, SF), who homered for the second straight game, and LuJames Groover (3-for-6, 2B, 3 R, 3 RBI).
