LANCASTER, Pa. – McDaniel tacked on three runs to it's six-run lead and Franklin & Marshall could only score one as the Green Terror secured the game two victory 17-9 Friday afternoon. Game two of the Centennial Conference (CC) double header was halted Thursday 14-8 in McDaniel's favor due to darkness, and resumed Friday to play out the final innings.
