RMHS alum Moss expected to start for UNC this weekend

Benton Moss

Benton Moss was an impact player for Rocky Mount's baseball team as a freshman. It looks like he will start his college career the same way.

Moss, a 2011 Gryphon graduate and a Morehead-Cain scholar, is expected to be Saturday's starter in Game 3 of North Carolina's season-opening series with Xavier in Chapel Hill.

That game was originally scheduled for Sunday, but with heavy rain expected in the Triangle all day Sunday, Games 1 and 2 are being played as a doubleheader Friday and Game 3 is being played Saturday.
