Lankford Chasing History
Brandon Lankford broke the UNC Asheville career record for home runs weeks ago. Now he’s chasing more history. Last week the senior slugger became one of only four hitters in Big South Conference annals to reach 50 career dingers. With seven games remaining, he’s two from tying the conference record for career HRs. For the season, he is tied for third in the country with 15 homers.
