MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. Logan fell behind 4-0 after one inning and never recovered falling to Georgetown, South Carolina 4-3 in the Mingo Bay Classic at Georgetown High School.
The Bulldogs got a two-run double from Blake Wall and RBIs from Stuart Bellune and Connor Dupius in the first inning to build a 4-0 lead off Logan starter Jared Burnette.

The Wildcats added a run in the seventh on a Jake Ramey sacrifice fly to trim the Bulldogs lead to 4-3, but it would be as close as Logan would get.
