It stayed tied until the fifth when the Trojans pushed two more across for a 4-2 lead. However, in the top of the sixth NP-Mansfield scored four to go back up by two.

Troy threatened in the sixth, and seventh innings, but couldn’t get anybody home.

Joseph Frye (2-for-3), and Brendan Gilliland (2-for-4) each had home runs, with Gilliland scoring twice.

Reed Palmer (1-for-3) also had a hit, as Mason Smith (2-for-4) crossed home.

After NPM went up 2-0 in the first Frye, and Gilliland responded with back to back home runs in the bottom half.

In the fifth Smith had a 1-out hit, then later scored. Gilliland would reach on an error with two outs, then scored on a Palmer hit for their 2-run lead.

In the sixth, though, NPM would get a home run by Eason Pequignot as part of their four run rally.

Troy (2-2) is at Towanda on Tuesday with a 4:30 p.m. start.
