RADFORD UNBEATEN IN COLLEGE BASEBALL

Freshman third baseman Rob McCandless drove in four runs Monday to pace Radford to a 13-3 college baseball victory over visiting Juniata (Pa.) College at Dedmon Center Park. McCandless was 4-for-5 as the Highlanders (4-0) equaled the best start in the nine-year history of the baseball program.

Galen Heidrick belted a two-run home run in the third inning and freshman shortstop Aaron Pasko had three of Radford's 16 hits.
