Box Score HARTSVILLE, S.C.  – In a rainy afternoon, the Bears were only able to complete one game in a scheduled doubleheader at Coker in their South Atlantic Conference opener on Wednesday afternoon. The Bears and Cobras waited out an hour rain delay in game one and played three-and-a-half innings in game two before the game was stopped due to no lights.
