Liberty @ VT - Fall Scrimmage
The new look Liberty Flames took the field under new coach Bradley LeCroy for the first time Wednesday afternoon in Blacksburg. The revamped lineup pounded out 24 runs in the 2 games that totaled 15 innings. The Flames won Game 1 16-10 and Game 2 (6 innings) 8-2. Liberty lost a ton of impact players via the transfer portal after former coach Scott Jackson departed for UNC. Only Camden Troyer, Tanner Marsh & John Simmons return from last years top 100 offensive attack. Juco transfer Easton Swofford paced the offensive attack with 6 hits including 3 doubles and a homer. Mikey Robertson, Camden Troyer, Riley Decandido, Tucker Moore & Jaxon Sorenson had multiple hits. Liberty also played error free ball over the course of the 15 innings which is a welcomed change as defensive miscues have plagued the Flames on the infield the last couple years. Liberty threw 14 pitchers in the 2 games. Blair & Mclaughlin allowed 8 or 10 runs that VT scored. I wouldn't be too ala
