Long night for Pirates |

 GREENVILLE
— East Carolina's youthful
midweek pitching corps was no
match for the meat of the North
Carolina order as an eight-run
outburst in the second inning
served as a launching pad for a
17-4 Tar Heels win on Tuesday
night.
A
crowd of 5,213, the third
largest ever at Clark-LeClair
Stadium and biggest this season,
saw the Pirates strike first but
the excitement of a possible
third straight win over UNC
didn't last long.

GREENVILLE —
Jacksonville took the second matchup of its three-game nonconference
series at East Carolina 8-6 on Friday night.
The Dolphins (15-7)
bounced back from
a
6-3 loss to the Pirates (15-8) on Thursday
night to force a deciding game in the series at 1 p.m. today.
ECU got a two-run homer
from freshman Dwanya Williams-Sutton in the second inning to tie the
score at 2 before the visitors went ahead to stay with two runs in
the third.
Sam Armstrong went
3-for-4 for the Dolphins with a pair of doubles.
Seth DeWitt homered to
left in the fifth for a 5-2 Jacksonville lead. A two-run single by
Dakota Julylia was the key hit in a three-run seventh for the
Dolphins.
Jacksonville had a 12-10
edge in hits.
Williams-Sutton had
three RBIs as his sacrifice fly capped a two-run eighth for ECU to
draw the hosts within 8-6. Williams-Sutton also had two walks.
Turner Brown had two
RBIs for the Pirates and Garrett Brooks plated a run.
Bryce Harman had a pair
of doubles for ECU and Eric Tyler finished with two hits.
Jacob Wolfe (2-2) was
charged with the loss as the Pirates used six pitchers.
Matt Baumann (3-1)
started and went six innings for the win. Mike Cassala got his sixth
save.
Spring
football at East Carolina is a
time of transition. A virtually
new coaching staff is installing
new systems and the Pirates are
in the process of determining a
starting quarterback.
It
certainly didn't seem like a series
win over Monmouth this past weekend
at Clark-LeClair Stadium. Of course,
it certainly didn't seem like the
first day of spring, either.
