    #16 UNC Pembroke opens 2014 season 3-0 - news weekend of 2/1/14

    #16 UNC Pembroke Braves swept their three game opening weekend series vs. Anderson University Trojans. The bats produced a combined 31 runs, 28 in two games, continuing their offensive assault from last year. The Braves returned 8 of their 9 offensive starters after they set multiple team offensive records in 2013.

    A nice way to spend the Super Bowl weekend - watching our Braves on the field!


    Pitcher Garrett Hickman was named PBC Pitcher of the Week on season opening weekend. This is the 3rd straight year that a Braves pitcher was named pitcher of the week on opening weekend. Garrett allowed four hits, struck out five and walked one in a CG 3-0 shutout. Below is a link to this summary.
