#12 Bobcat Baseball Rallies Twice for Doubleheader Sweep, 9-3 and 6-2

Box Score 1 | Box Score 2

MELBOURNE, Fla. – The No. 12 Georgia College Baseball team (23-7) came from behind twice in a doubleheader sweep Friday at Florida Tech (12-19), taking game one 9-3 and game two 6-2.

In game one, the Bobcats were down 3-1 into the sixth inning. Brandt Stallings (Buford, Georgia) and Cal Gentry (Perry, Georgia) each had run-scoring singles, and Garrett Green (Bogart, Georgia) added an RBI double to get a three-run rally in the sixth. Georgia College added one more in the seventh on a Brendan Holler (Gilroy, California) single, and pushed it out of reach with a four-run ninth.

Holler was 3-for-4 with four RBIs and a run, swatting the first home run of his Bobcat career, a three-run shot in the ninth. Green finished 4-for-5 with three RBIs and two runs, and Stallings added three hits in five trips, driving in one and scoring once.

Gentry had three hits and the RBI, while Logan Mattix (Loganville, Georgia) and Matthew Miller (San Diego, California) each tallied two hits, Mattix scoring three times.

Charlie Hecht (Johns Creek, Georgia) got the win (7-0), the Johns Creek Monster allowing three runs over five innings, the most he has allowed in any game during his sensational senior year. Junior Bradly Cammack (Soperton, Georgia) scattered five hits over four shutout innings for his third save. Cammack fanned eight.

The Bobcats trailed again in the sixth in game two, this time 2-0. GC Baseball exploded for five runs in the sixth. Two came in on a home run by Miller, his fourth this season. Green and senior Brandon Purcell (Glennville, Georgia) also provided run-scoring singles in the inning.

Green finished game two 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run, while freshman catcher Austin Holloway (Social Circle, Georgia) added two hits in three trips, scoring a run. Lefty reliever Logan Howard (Cumming, Georgia) got the win, tossing the final four frames hitless, striking out 10 and walking just one.

The Bobcats close the three-game set with the Panthers with a single game tomorrow, March 31 at noon.
