Back to back K's by Roupp. Kid is on fire!

After a leadoff triple to start the top of the 7th, the Hawks head to the pen. Morgan entering.

Fantastic job by Roupp!

A wild pitch scores the run. 5-4.

Time to stretch! Bottom 7th coming up.

Runners at the corners and 2 down for Meadows!

Meadows hits a rocket to short but its caught. Damn.

Still a 5-4 game in the 8th.

UNC picks up a pair of runs in the 8th, and the Seahawk hitters go down without any damage.

7-4 Tarheels in the 9th.

Tarheels open it up on the 9th. 11-4.

The Hawks play a 3-game series @ Memphis this weekend.

Baseball Preview: at Memphis

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The Seahawks visit Memphis this weekend, beginning on Friday, when the two programs play a non-conference series at FedEXPark.

UNCW enters the series looking to get back in the win column after seeing its season-high four-game winning streak halted on Wednesday by 10th-ranked North Carolina. The Tar Heels were able to push a run across in the top of the seventh to take a 5-4 lead before adding two in the eighth and four more in the ninth to make an 11-4 final.

Memphis (8-7), meanwhile, routed Mississippi Valley State 8-1 on Tuesday. The Tigers held the Delta Devils to two hits and a run while scoring the last eight runs of the contest.

This weekend's series will be the first meeting between the two programs, but the Seahawks have played East Carolina and Tulane, who are also members of the American Athletic Conference.

PITCHING MATCHUPS

Friday - Luke Gesell, RHP (1-2, 2.11 ERA) vs. Hunter Smith, LHP (2-1, 4.09 ERA)

Saturday - Brody Lawson, RHP (2-0,4.08 ERA) vs. Danny Denz, LHP (1-1, 5.93 ERA)

Sunday - Gage Herring, RHP (0-0, 2.37 ERA) vs. Chris Durham, LHP (0-1, 5.94 ERA)

Memphis looks like they'll be a middling team in the AAC this year. Their RPI currently sits at 170. They have a decent lineup, but not much power (7 team HR on the season), and their bullpen is strong.

Standout performers to this point in the season:

* Hunter Goodman (fr. C): .318, 13 RBI, 3 SB, .455 SLG
* Ben Brooks (so. 2B): .311, 5 RBI, 10 R
* Nick Vaage (r-jr. OF): .271, 2 HR, 11 RBI, 12 R
* Colton Neel (sr. LHP): 0.00 ERA, 2 Saves, 6 K, 1 BB, 4.1 IP
* Landon Kelly (r-so. RHP): 1-1, 2.08 ERA, 1 Save, 15 K, 3 BB, 13.0 IP
