The Appalachian Mountaineer^
paired six hits with four Elon er
rors to score four unearned runs
and turn back the Fighting Christ
ians 4 to 1 in a Carolinas Confer
ence baseball game at Boone on
Monday. May 6th.
Bill Jarrett. ace of the Mountain
eer mound staff, worked a steady
game on the mound a.s he let the
Elon outfit down with five scat
tered hits. Jarrett fanned seven and
walked only two as he gave the
Apps an even break with Elon in
their home-and-home .series this sea
son.
Jerry Drake, who worked the first
se\en frames for Elon, also turned
in a steady job on the mound, but
he was the victim of four Christian
fielding errors and had to take thi
credit for the loss. Mike Little.
Chri.stian center fielder, had three
of Elon’s five hits, one of his blow
being a solo homer for the onl
Elon .score.
The Mountaineers scored three n
their four runs in the fifth inninc
when a walk, a sacrifice, an Elo
error and a brace of Mountaino''
singles plated the three scores. Th
final App marker came in the sp-
enth on two singles and a pair r
