Baucom Homers To Lift UNCW Past Towson, 8-7

WILMINGTON, N.C. – Graduate Student Ethan Baucom's two-run home run with one out in the seventh gave UNCW a lead as the Seahawks held off Towson, 8-7, in a back-and-forth affair on Friday at Brooks Field.

The Seahawks, who improved to 19-13 with the home win, raised their record to 4-3 in the Colonial Athletic Association. Towson, meanwhile, dropped to 9-24 and 0-7 in the league.

Baucom finished with three runs batted in, including a sac fly in the third that gave UNCW a 5-4 lead. John Newton led the Seahawks with two hits while all nine starters had a hit. Matt Suggs doubled in a run in the third and added a sac fly of his own in the first inning.

Jason Hudak (2-0) earned the win in relief. Hudak allowed one hit over his 2.1 innings and struck out two. Hunter Hodges closed the game out for his fourth save of the season.

Elijah Dickerson held game-high honors for the Tigers with three hits and three runs batted in. He connected on his fifth home run of the season in the third inning to give Towson a 4-2 lead.

Nolan Bolt (0-3) was tagged with the loss in relief. Bolt surrendered three runs, two earned, in 2.2 innings.

How it happened: With one out, Suggs worked a walk off Bolt to set the stage for Baucom. Following a trip to the mound for Towson, Baucom jumped on the first offering and sent it over the wall to the left of the batters eye for an 8-6 lead.

Inside the box score: UNCW advanced runners in 15-of-22 opportunities … Both teams combined for three two-out hits … Taber Mongero extended his modest hitting streak to four games with a third-inning single … UNCW tied a school-record with five total sacrifices (3 SF, 2 sac bunts) … The lead changed hands or was tied five times in the first three innings.

Home Runs: Towson: Dickerson (5, two outs, one on, 392 feet to right center, 99 exit velo); UNCW: Baucom (7, one out, one on, 383 feet to center, 101 exit velo)

Up next: The Seahawks and Tigers will play game two of the series on Saturday at 4 p.m.
