ATHENS - Athens used an early offensive explosion to beat Williamson 7-5 in NTL cross-over baseball action Friday. The game was called after 5 1/2-innings due to rain but they played enough to count it as a full game.
Athens scored five in the first inning then added two more in the second to take a 7-0 lead. Williamson came back in the top of the third, scoring five runs but the Wildcats held them after that.
Curt Moore had three hits for the Wildcats, including a double, with 2-RBI while Stag Shadduck added two hits with a run scored.
Nick Vosburg, Craig Moore, Mike Estes and Neil Carpenter had a double each while Jake Shaffer added a single.
