NORFOLK, Virginia — Bethune-Cookman won two elimination games in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Baseball Championships on Friday to advance to Saturday's play.
In the first game, B-CU won 11-5 against North Carolina A&T (16-38).
In the second game, B-CU (33-24) won 7-3 against North Carolina Central (27-29).
"I couldn’t be happier,” B-CU coach Jason Beverlin said. “The energy and focus they showed for 18 straight innings was outstanding, especially the second game.''
The Wildcats will play the loser of Savannah State vs. Coppin State, which is at 1 p.m. Saturday, in a game at 5 p.m. Saturday.
Scott Garner (6-5) gave up three runs on four hits, struck out three and walked eight in six innings for the win against N.C. A&T. Despite a run on the board, Garner held a no-hitter for the Wildcats through the fourth inning. He worked out of two bases-loaded jams with no runs surrendered.
