GREENSBORO, N.C. – Jordan Slate's sacrifice fly in the ninth inning plated Casey Mann, clinching the Quakers' 7-6 victory over visiting University of Maine at Presque Isle Sunday at McBane Field.

Guilford scored three runs in the bottom of the sixth to take a 6-4 lead. Presque-Isle countered with single runs in the seventh and eighth innings to tie the score.
