LAWRENCEVILLE — Buford coach Tony Wolfe describes pitcher Connor Bennett as a “bulldog” on the mound, especially in relief appearances. On Saturday, the West Virginia signee took a big bite out of Gainesville’s lineup. Bennett came on in relief to get Buford out of a two-on, nobody-out jam in the sixth, then struck out the side in the seventh to preserve a strong start by teammate Jake Higginbotham and give the Wolves a 2-0 victory over Gainesville at Coolray Field.
