In the top of the eighth ETS(11-8 0-1 Conf) tied things up on a Cullen Smith/Lebanon, Tenn. (Wilson Central HS) double.

In the half of the eighth Mercer got a home run from, Charlie Madden/Dunwoody HS,Ga. This was his tenth bomb of the season.This made the score 4-2, Mercer. Then it was a Jackson Ware/Statesboro HS,Ga solo blast that ended the scoring in this one. The homer was the fifth of the season for Ware.
