"Tonight was a night where you couldn't miss up with winds howling out. We have to play better defense, we're averaging about 4 errors a game right now and it's killing us in tight games at the moment. Better days are ahead, everything we are going through will have us battle tested, said
Chris Crenshaw, Southern Head Coach."
Joseph Battaglia picks up his second loss of the season. The Jaguars scoring came from
Burgos, Rollon, Porter and Armstrong finished with one run each.
