HOW IT HAPPENED:
Trevecca got on the board first in the first inning as Joey Parliment hit a triple, then reached home on a Josh Griffin sacrifice ground out. Then the offense went quiet for a couple of innings.
The Trojans picked up where they left off in the bottom of the fourth inning. Scoring four runs to extend their lead to 5-0. Cooper Whitt scored on a Bryant Goolsby RBI single. Then Goolsby later reached home on a bases-loaded walk. Then Josh Seiler hit a two-RBI single that scored Joey Parliment and Henry Mosley to round out the scoring.
On the other end, Alabama-Huntsville's offense was limited due to Trojan pitchers Mason Wells and Nathan McKissick, as well as the Trojan outfield, as they did not allow a run in their six combined innings pitched.
