The Gamecock baseball team t
recovered from a two-game losing
skid to win Saturday and Sunday j
against the Kent Golden Flashes t
at Sarge Frye Field.
Jason Pomar started Saturday's c
game, allowing only one hit and one j
run through five innings before he g
tired in the sixth inning.
' The Gamecocks (8-2) jumped c
into the lead with eight runs in the \
bottom of the first, propelled by key }
hits from Derick Urquhart, Ryan ?
S2wejbka and Etienne Hightower.
Urquhart drove in two runs with
a bases-loaded single, and Szwejbka c
lined a wind-aided, two-out double ?
over the left fielder's head to score g
two more runs. t
Hightower came to bat for the
second time, still in the first inning, t
with two men on and responded by \
popping a fly ball into the gusting s
wind that dropped just over the left \
field wall for a three-run homer, c
By the time Pomar tired, the
Gamecocks were up 12-1 and looked c

Gamecocks added 15 moi e runs to
win the game, 21-4.
Streicher hit two homers and
drove in five runs, and Urquhart
also had five runs batted in and a

The shot of the day was once
again off the bat of Mike Curry, who
hit a rocket in the second inning
well over the right field wall. The
homerun was the fifth by Curry in
ten games this season.
The four home runs by the
Gamecocks gave them 22 for the

destroy last year's total of 54
homeruns.

Thursday ai Georgia Southern.
Their next home game is Friday
against West Virginia.
