XULA has Moore than enough to rally past Stillman
Nick Saban didn't attend the #XULA-#Stillman baseball game in Tuscaloosa yesterday, but if he had he would've loved our comeback from eight runs down. Two more games with the Tigers today.

#XULA trailed 6-0 and 11-3 at #Stillman but rallied for an 18-14 victory. Jeremy Moore's three-run double keyed a five-run ninth, then Jamal Allen breezed through the bottom half of the inning. Saturday: 11 a.m. doubleheader.#TeamGold #HailAllHailXU #NAIATogether #NAIABaseball pic.twitter.com/5g67CjwrC5
