Spikes sprint to lead, hang on to top Auburn

The State College Spikes sprinted to a 9-0 lead after two innings, but had to battle throughout the night to eventually topple the Auburn Doubledays, 10-8, on Friday night at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park. Andy Young’s first professional home run, a two-run shot to left-center field off Auburn starter A.J. Bogucki, capped off State College’s early surge.
