REPEAT! Cats Down DSU In 8 For 2nd Straight MEAC Title

ORMOND BEACH, Fla. - So what if we didn't get the picture-perfect storybook ending? Any extra-inning victory with a walk-off single like Bethune-Cookman's 5-4 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference championship game decision over Delaware State Sunday morning still makes a dang good read.

Michelle Banuelos-Smith`s bases-loaded, no-out single to right drove in pinch runner Bianca Savulak for the game-winner as the Wildcats (33-24) won their second straight league championship and NCAA regional berth. B-CU will learn its destination tonight at 10 p.m. when ESPNU broadcasts the selection show.

B-CU worked its way through the loser's bracket to win the title, enduring a three-hour delay on Friday and then having this game postponed from Saturday.

"We like to compete and that's a great attribute to have," said B-CU coach Chris Cochran. "Our seniors and younger players are in the top third tier when it comes to attitude. When things are going good, the players are great and when things are bad, the players are great. I'm happy for the players because winning the championship twice in two years is not easy to do. "

Cochran garnered her second Tournament Outstanding Coach award along with senior Allison Garcia for Outstanding Player. Banuelos-Smith joined Garcia on the All-tournament team.
