GREENSBORO, N.C. – Presbyterian College freshman lefthander Beau Dees (Blenheim, S.C.) had a no-hitter through five innings in the team's rubber match against UNC Greensboro on Saturday, but the Spartans broke up the bid in the sixth en route to a win over the Blue Hose, 4-1.

PC moves to 13-20 overall, while UNC Greensboro improves to 17-13.

Dees took the loss despite a strong outing. The Blue Hose pitcher did not allow a hit until the sixth inning, when Greensboro found four runs and five hits for the eventual winning margin.

Robby Swab (Kernsersville, N.C.) led PC with a 2-for-4 day at the plate. He also drove in the squad's lone run.

Neither team registered a hit until the fifth inning. The Blue Hose struck first, as Kenny Bryant (Goose Creek, S.C.) posted a leadoff double and Swab followed with an RBI double of his own. PC led after the frame, 1-0.

Dees struck out the side in the fifth, accounting for three of his four strikeouts on Saturday.

PC came close to building on its lead in the sixth, placing runners at second and third. A flyout ended the chance, however, and the teams headed to the bottom of the frame.

The Spartans scored all four of their runs in the bottom of the inning. After one out, Zach Leach tripled to right field and came home after Trevor Edwards lined a double into right. A single and two more doubles put three more runs on the board before Dees escaped a jam with runners on the corners. Greensboro led, 4-1.

PC put runners in scoring position in each of the remaining three innings but could not convert as Greensboro held on for the win.

Corey Taylor gave up three hits in six innings for the Spartans to earn the win. Dylan Hathcock earned the save.

The Blue Hose return home for their next game, a Tuesday contest against Davidson at the PC Baseball Complex. First pitch is scheduled for 3 p.m.
