USC Aiken blanks No. 12 Nighthawks, 4-0

AIKEN, S.C. – The No. 12 University of North Georgia softball team fell Saturday at USC Aiken, 4-0.

The Pacers did all of their damage in the bottom of the sixth, starting with a bases clearing double that put USCA up, 3-0. Two batters later, USC Aiken used a single to score the fourth run of the contest.

North Georgia had their chances to score, putting runners in scoring position in all but the seventh inning, but could never find that timely hit to plate a run.

NOTES
– With the loss and a Columbus State win, the magic number remains at two to clinch the regular season title.

– Hannah Forehand and Madi Perry each had a pair of hits in the game.
