Oxford 5, Deposit 4
OXFORD – Another quick start carried Oxford to victory.
The Blackhawks scored three runs in the first to finish off a 4-0 week with a one-run win over Deposit Friday. In all four victories, Oxford scored at least one run in the opening inning.
Andrew Golden had a two-run triple in the first inning, and Matt Moore followed with an RBI groundout. One inning later, Cameron Heggie singled in a run, and he came in on Golden’s second triple of the game.
Heggie, Golden, and Jeff Lawton all went 2-for-3, and Golden pitched a complete game for the win. “It was a great week for us,” said Oxford coach Chris Palmer. “We’ve been able to get the early lead and make it hold up.”
Oxford (4-3) is at Bainbridge-Guilford today.
