Diamond Hawks Fall To 8th-Ranked Rebels, 7-2

 
OXFORD, Mississippi – Mason Berne collected two hits for UNCW, but eighth-ranked Ole Miss used a four-run second inning to take the lead on its way to a 7-2 win over the Seahawks in the first game of a three-game series on Friday at Swayze Field.

Ole Miss starter David Parkinson improved to 2-0 on the season. The lefthander pitched into the seventh, allowing two runs, one earned, on three hits and a walk. He finished with six strikeouts.

Alex Royalty (1-1) was tagged with the loss after allowing five runs over six innings. Royalty tied his career-high with four walks, including three in the second inning.

Nick Feight homered in the seventh inning for the Seahawks, who narrowed their deficit to 5-2 with two runs in the inning.

Grae Kessinger had a game-high three hits for the Rebels while Chase Cockrell had two hits. Cockrell and Thomas Dillard had home runs for Ole Miss. Cooper Johnson and Dillard had two runs batted in apiece.

How it happened: The Rebels opened a 4-0 lead in the second inning taking advantage of three walks and three hits. Johnson plated the first run with a bases-loaded walk and Kessinger pushed the lead to 2-0 with a RBI single.
