Seventh-ranked Georgia Gwinnett scored multiple runs in each of the first four innings on Sunday afternoon on the way to an 18-0 victory over Lourdes at the Grizzly Baseball Complex in Lawrenceville, Ga.
 
"Against good teams we have to make the plays," head coach Josh Bradford said afterwards.  "We had some costly errors early that extended their innings.  We have to do a better job of putting together quality at bats."
 
The Grizzlies plated three in the first and two more in the second to take an early lead.  An error led to six unearned runs as part of a nine-run third for Georgia Gwinnett (17-2) before the hosts plated two more in both the fourth and sixth innings.
 
Lourdes had a runner on third in the second and loaded the bases without anyone out in the seventh, but was unable to plate a runner, tallying just four hits on the afternoon.
 
Lourdes (2-5) will head to Montreat, N.C. on Monday afternoon to continue its spring trip.  First pitch against Montreat is set for 3 p.m. at Newell Field.
