Tech loses one-run game to The Citadel

Max Ponzurick has two hits and scores twice in the 5-4 defeat

CHARLESTON, S.C. – A couple seventh-inning errors by the Virginia Tech baseball team led to The Citadel pushing four runs across the plate and turning a 2-1 deficit into a three-run advantage. The Hokies tried to turn the tables on the Bulldogs, scoring two runs in the eighth and loading the bases in the ninth, but could not get home the equalizer as they lost 5-4 to the Bulldogs Saturday evening at Riley Park.

Tech had loaded the bases with one out on a single and back-to-back errors by the hosts, but Bulldog closer Zach Lavery got the final two outs by strikeout to preserve the home team’s win.
