HOLLY SPRINGS, NC – The William Peace University Baseball team dropped its third straight game Sunday afternoon at the North Main Athletic Complex against Castleton University, 15-5.
 
The Pacers took the early 2-1 heading into the third inning, but the Spartans offense woke up in the top of the frame.  Back to back home runs by Nick Swim and Dan Errico put the visiting team up 6-2.  It was all Spartans from there putting up a five spot in the sixth frame and a four spot in the eighth. 
 
Despite multi hit games from Easton Payton, Alex Scott, and Will Cunningham the Pacers could not keep pace with the Spartans offense.  Payton lead the team in RBI with two, while finishing the contest going 2-for-4.
