CARROLLTON, Ga. | Drew Eady drove in three runs to lead the University of West Georgia to a 10-1 non-conference baseball victory over Young Harris College Tuesday (Feb. 16) afternoon at Cole Field.

West Georgia scored four times in the bottom of the second inning. Eady gave the Wolves the lead for good with his two-run, two-out double down the left field line. Payton Mann and Tyler Hutch each followed with RBI doubles of their own off YHC starter Bryan Syphoe (1-1).
 
A two-run homer by Caleb Lopes in the fourth pushed the West Georgia lead to 9-1. Lopes and Cade Marlowe led the 13-hit West Georgia attack with three hits apiece.
