SAVANNAH, Ga. | Young Harris College scored five runs in the 11th inning as the Mountain Lions wrapped up their 2017 season with a 6-1 Peach Belt Conference baseball victory over Armstrong State University Sunday (April 23) afternoon at Pirate Field.

Rudy Gaona followed with a two-run single through the left side to give Young Harris a 3-1 lead. Royce Woolfolk drove in another run on a misplayed grounder before Zach Odom added a run on his fielder's choice.

Young Harris had 12 hits in the game with Wall leading the way with three. Sexton and Luke Miller each contributed two hits in the victory.
