SAVANNAH, Ga. — For the second-straight game, Campbellsville Tiger baseball picked up a gem on the mound and came through with timely hitting to upend No. 8 USC Beaufort in the Savannah Bracket, 6-1.

Campbellsville (38-16) will now move into tomorrow's NAIA Baseball Opening Round championship series with Point University – which is 3-0 in the tournament and defeated CU, 7-2, in game one. The Tigers will need to win two games with the first starting at 9:00 a.m. ET at Grayson Stadium.

Starter Nick Morehead (6-5) teamed up with closer Jake Pannunzio and shut down the Sand Sharks. Morehead allowed one hit – an inside the park home run by Justin Kortessis in the second inning – and dominated the rest of the game. He tossed six innings, allowed the one hit and struck out six batters.

Pannunzio entered in the seventh after Morehead walked a pair of batters to start the inning but Brandon Joyce popped up a sac bunt and Pannunzio made a diving play double off the base runner at first.

USCB had only two base runners the remainder of the game – a single in the eighth and ninth innings. Pannunzio went three frames and allowed just two hits.

The Tigers were led at the plate with multi hit games from Riley Joyce, Miguel Solano and Richard Ramirez.

CU had to play from behind again but scored a pair of runs in the fourth inning. The rally started with the Tigers playing small ball. Cody Erickson was hit by a pitch to leadoff the inning, was moved to second base on a sac bunt by Riley Joyce and then Miguel Solano continued his offensive prowess with a double down the left field line to tie the game at one.

But CU wasn't done and took a 2-1 lead after Romello Carbuccia drove in Solano with a single.

Another mistake cost the Sand Sharks a run in the fifth. Casey Scott reached on an error by the third baseman and came around to score on single by Ketchen. USCB committed three errors in its final game of the season, finishing with a 44-14 record.

CU played add-on in the seventh and once against came way of a USCB free pass. Nestor Linares walked, stole second base and advanced to third on an error by the catcher Nick Payne before Scott laid down a squeeze bunt giving CU a 4-1 lead.

In the eighth, Joyce started the rally with a one-out single and Solano picked up his second double of the game pushing the Tigers ahead, 5-1. After a pitching change, Kortessis tossed a wild pitch allowing Solano to score and give CU a 6-1 lead.

In the last four games for Solano dating back to the Mid-South Conference Tournament championship, he is hitting .687 (11-for-16) with five RBI.

Jamie Strock (9-5) picked up the loss for USCB, after going 7 1/3 innings and allowing eight hits and four earned runs.
