Statesboro, Ga. – Trailing for the first time after a two-spot Georgia Southern put on the board in the home half of the third inning, Western Carolina responded with a four-run fourth to surge back in front of Sunday’s series finale at J.I. Clements Stadium, 5-2. However, ignited by a five-run fifth, the Eagles closed the game with nine unanswered runs to complete the season-opening sweep over the Catamounts, 11-5.
