Box Score MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. — Appalachian State University baseball committed three errors and issued nine walks in a 12-3 loss to Old Dominion in the final game of the Caravelle Resort Tournament on Sunday at Pelicans Ballpark.

Appalachian State (0-3) and Old Dominion (3-0) both had nine hits and left seven men on base but ODU capitalized on Appalachian's miscues to cruise to the victory.

Four of Appalachian State's five pitchers walked at least one batter, including starter Colin Schmid, who issued five free passes in 3.1 innings of work. Despite allowing only four hits, the left-handed true freshman surrendered six runs and suffered the loss in his collegiate debut.

The Monarchs also benefitted from three Mountaineer errors that led to three unearned runs.

Despite the rough outing on the mound, Schmid was Appalachian's top contributor at the plate, going 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI. Fellow true freshman Beau Myers also went 2-for-4 with a double and scored two runs. Another rookie, Tanner Mann-Fix, went 2-for-3 with a walk in his first-career start.

In all, freshmen combined for seven of Appalachian State's nine hits. Sophomores were responsible for the other two.

Old Dominion's Connor Myers led off the game with a home run and finished 3-for-5 with three runs scored. Cleanup hitter Kyle Beam also homered and finished 3-for-4 with three RBI and two runs scored to help pace the undefeated Monarchs.

Appalachian State returns to action on Tuesday when it travels to face national power South Carolina. First pitch is set for 4 p.m. at USC's Founders Park in Columbia, S.C.
