Snapping Elon's current five-game win streak, the Catamounts slammed out nine hits on their way to a 7-5 victory over Elon.

The Cats take game one of a key Southern Conference baseball series with Elon, Friday afternoon at Childress Field / Hennon Stadium.

Game starter Jeremy Null picked up a win with six innings of work, striking out seven, but giving up four runs.   Freshman Alex Barr allowed one run in one inning of relief, and Tyler Powell struck out two in his single inning pitched.

Preston Hatcher entered the game in the 8th, and earned his fifth save of the season.

The Catamount pitchers earned 14 strikeouts, just two short of their seasonal high.
