Golden goes down on strikes to end the inning, but the Diamondhawks tie the game at 3 after 2 complete.

Monroe settles down in the 3rd and retires everyone but Brett Pope, who had a single on a bunt to 3rd.

Heading to the bottom of the third with a tie game at 3.

Go Hawks!

Stupienski, Dick, and Dunlap due up for the Hawks in the middle of the order.

Stupienski goes opposite field, but easily handled by the WCU left fielder.

Corey Dick walks on 4 pitches. One on and one out for the diamond hawks in the third so far.

Dunlap goes opposite field as well, but that ball is also easily handled this time by the right fielder for WCU. 2 outs.

WCU ends the 3rd with the SS finally handling a ball and putting Dick out at 2nd. Still tied at 3 after the third inning.

7,8, and 9 hitters due up for WCU in the 4th. Let's hope Monroe stays hot from last inning and puts them down quick!

Correction: The WCU order will be 8, 9 and 1 due to the DH. Monroe sits the first batter down for his 4th K of the game.

DH is on first with a ground ball up the middle. Top of the order coming up to the plate with one out and one on.

Linkous tracks down the 2nd out of the inning on a well hit ball to left field. Still one runner on at 1st, two outs.

Stupienski picks off the runner at 1st after a quick run down!!!

Well done! Still tied at 3 going to the bottom of the 4th.

McDowell, Mims, and Linkous coming to the plate in the 4th.

Top of the 5th now, WCU has one man on and no outs. #3 hitter, he's 1-1 and has also been hit by a pitch. This is going to be a big inning for Monroe. If he can get through this, I think he can stretch his day to 7 innings possibly. If he struggles here this or next inning will be his last.

Scalf is pissed!!! Ball hit to left looked foul, even on the feed and it was called a 2-run HR. No way this can stand???

Call is reversed! WCU coach is now out there giving the umps an earful. LOL. Love this part of baseball.

Monroe walks Hoyle, still tied at 3. Two men on at first and second for WCU, no outs.

Golden reels in a fly ball in CF, but WCU has runners on the corners with 1 out. Scalf out to pull Monroe. Going to the "Maestro" Magestro!!!

The Maestro K's Brett Pope (WCU's top offensive threat) to end the inning!

That was a HUGE freshman vs freshman sequence right there!

Still tied at 3, going to the bottom of the 5th.

Golden, Stupienski, and Corey Dick due up for the Diamond Hawks in the 5th. Middle of the order. We need to plate some runs here fellas! Start putting the pressure on WCU and protect our relievers.
