Embry-Riddle Drops Game One Against Georgia College and State

The Eagles come up short in 4-2 loss to the Bobcats

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — It was a pitcher's duel inside Sliwa Stadium as freshman arm Aiden Marsiglio and the Bobcats' Keaton Prior held the batters at bay through the first four frames. Georgia College and State broke open the scoreboard in the fifth inning with back-to-back doubles. The Eagles responded with a run of their own in the bottom of the fifth, and continued to threaten on base. However, Embry-Riddle ultimately could not overcome the run deficit and will enter tomorrow's double-header one game behind in the series. 

Short-stop Francisco Feliciano continues to produce from the plate, leading the Eagles with three hits and a run scored. The left-fielder Aidan Corn was also a big contributor with the bat tonight recording two hits and a run. Feliciano and Corn lead the Eagles squad this season with eight and seven hits respectively. 

RECORDS:
Embry-Riddle 0-4
Georgia College and State 1-2
