Tyler Ungerland finished 2-for-4 with a pair of RBI. Freshman right fielder
Anthony Scheller wound up 3-for-5.
On the hill, junior right-hander

In today's second game, junior second baseman
Joe Foran and senior designated hitter
Joe DeLuca had two hits apiece while freshman right-hander

The Rams jumped out to a 6-1 lead with three runs in the third and three more an inning later, before Pedone tripled to left and came across on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Ungerland in the fifth.
The Golden Knights then cut their deficit to a pair in the sixth when DeLuca tripled and scored on a double by Chandler. Two batters later, Chandler came across on an error.
The game stood that way until the ninth when Winston-Salem State pushed across the game's final run.
