A different start for the Owls this time around. An RBI double and a 2-run homer in the 1st inning has UAB up 3-0 as FAU is unable to put up runs in the 2nd inning.

AND WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT! FAU has tied things up at 3 apiece thanks to 3 home runs from Armando Albert (6th overall), Mitchell Hartigan (4th overall), and Spencer Rich (3rd overall) in the 3rd and 4th innings respectively! GREAT RESPONSE FROM THE OWLS!

We need to take this one and just put away the standings "race".

A low-scoring game compared to last night, but FAU has done well keeping the Blazers in check with Sam Drumheller closing out 2.1 innings with 3 strikeouts and no runs allowed! Score remains tied at 3 apiece to begin the 7th!

Walking runs in now…we'll take it!

The Owls get back-to-back RBI walks from Schroeder and Hartigan to put themselves back up 5-3 entering the bottom of the 7th! And we have Robert Wegielnik checking in the game as our closer! TIME TO GET SERIOUS! 🔥

Late fireworks are better than no fireworks - let's go!

Locking it up  

Rich putting in the dagger with the 2-run blast to left field! Owls lead 8-3 as they try to prevent UAB from scoring in the 9th!

THE SERIES IS OURS with FAU ending UAB's hopes of qualifying for the C-USA Tournament! Now we can conclude the regular season with a sweep tomorrow afternoon!
