Benton Moss pitch six innings and allowed ECU only one run and kept Carolina alive in the Chapel Hill Regional as Carolina beat the Pirates 5-3 to advance to the championship round against St Johns tonight at 6PM. The Heels have to win tonight and then come back and beat St Johns Monday night. Only one win is all it takes for the Red Storm to come in to Chapel Hill and steal the regional in North Carolina's back yard
Over in Raleigh State scored 17 runs against UNC Wilmington and won over the Seahawks knocking them out of the tournament. State must now beat Vanderbilt twice as they are in the same boat as Carolina and need a win tonight and tomorrow in order to win their own hosted Regional.
Both Benton Moss and Hobbs Johnson former Gryphons got wins for the Heels in their starts in the Regional while Northern Nash's Tyler Joyner recorded a save for ECU in their only win in the regional.
Vanderbilt had a chance to walk into Raleigh and taken home the golden egg but if they are to do so they must wait to Monday to do it as the Wolfpack jumped to a 5-1 lead and saw Vandy tie it up late but tonight the Pack scores in the bottom of the 8th inning to beat the Commodores 6-5. This sets up a winner take all Monday night at 7PM with the winner advancing to the Super regional.
North Carolina was not so lucky as for the second time in a row St Johns beats the Tar Heels at the Bosh and the Red Storm has knocked the #6 seed out of the tournament. Final 9-5. In their two losses in this Regional Carolina did not get enough relief pitching or score enough runs for the pitching they got in the losses.
