Box Score Winston-Salem, N.C. - For the second day in a row Millersville jumped out to an early lead on Winston-Salem State, but for the second day in a row that lead turned into a loss. On Saturday at BB&T Ballpark, Millersville committed three costly errors and walked six in a 15-7 loss.

For Millersville (0-2), it was the most runs allowed since 2010.

Millersville jumped on Carlton in the second, though. Stuckey plated two with a single, bouncing Carlton from the game. Stone drove in two more to put the Marauders on top, 4-0.

Winston-Salem State started the bottom of the inning with backt-to-back singles. A fielding error loaded the bases, and Brandon Harrison drove in two with a double.
