UAPB 17, PHILANDER SMITH 7

For the second day in a row, the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff overcame an early deficit against the Panthers to cruise at the Torii Hunter Complex in Pine Bluff.

Juan Zorola hit a two-run home run in the first inning to give Philander Smith (1-14) a 2-0 lead. UAPB (9-8), which also trailed 2-0 on Tuesday before storming back for a 16-5 win, tied the game at 2-2 in the second, but the Panthers pushed across four runs in the third, sparked by a two-run single from Jax Golden. However, the Golden Lions rallied in a big way.

UAPB scored 13 unanswered runs, including nine during a huge fourth inning. Trinidad DeLaGarza, Lawrence Noble, Darrius Brown, Malachi Jeffries and Ben VanMaanen all had run-scoring hits in the frame.
