CARY, N.C. — Pat Montieth’s third inning grand slam set the tone for North Greenville who defeated West Chester (PA) 8-5 Thursday at the NCAA Division II World Series.
With the win, the Crusaders (53-10) advance to the championship round without a loss in their first series appearance in program history.
On the mound, Thomas Skipper earned the win as he came out of the bullpen and went two and a third innings, allowing three runs on four hits with two strikeouts.
North Greenville faces Friday’s noon game winner between Point Loma(CA) and Rollins(FL) for the national title Friday at 7:00 pm. The winner of that noon game would need two wins over North Greenville to claim the title.
