Augusta, Ga. - Augusta managed just five hits and a pair of runs as No. 17 North Georgia knocked off Augusta 8-2 Saturday afternoon at Jaguar Field. Augusta falls to 15-18 overall and 11-8 in the Peach Belt Conference. The Nighthawks improve 18-2 in the conference and 26-8 overall.

Five different Jaguars picked up a single hit with Mattheson Go collecting a RBI.

North Georgia scored a run in the first, two more in both the third and fourth inning and one in the fifth. 

The lone two runs for the Jags came in the bottom of the fifth. Jake Vachon singled to lead off the frame.
