Five Sand Sharks compete

Five USC Beaufort players participated in The Sun Conference's preseason all-star game last Saturday in Daytona Beach, Fla. as the South beat the North, 14-10.

Pitcher Junior Delatorre allowed two two-out singles and struck out two in one scoreless inning for the North.

Ashly Morris went 2-for-3 with a walk and a run scored. He started the game as the North's DH and later moved to shortstop, where he played errorless defense on six chances.

Kyle Thompson went 0-for-3 and scored a run for the North.  Alex Bonilla and Nick Payne played for the South.

USC Beaufort opens its season with a home doubleheader at 11 a.m. Saturday against Northwestern (Ohio).
