W&L's largest lead of the contest came at 12-3 in the bottom of the sixth inning. VJC (1-2) rallied for five runs in the final two innings, but could never bring the margin below six runs. Freshman righthander Michael Hanson (Atlanta, Ga./Pace Academy) hurled six strong innings to move to 3-1 on the mound for the Generals.

Senior shortstop David Hanson (Atlanta, Ga./Pace Academy) banged out three hits in five at-bats while driving in three runs for W&L.
