The baseball team took down #6 Florida on the road, and the softball team beat Virginia Tech to highlight this week’s action in Buccaneer Athletics. Also released this week; Katie Tull and Kelsey Wasmer were each named to the All-Big South second team, while Helen Terry earned a spot on the all-freshman team.
The game was the second complete game of his career, going all nine innings against Presbyterian College in 2008.
Megan Hall (Softball), Javon Young (Track and Field) and Olga Makhova (Tennis) were also nominated.
March 8 – WBB vs. Winthrop – W, 66-62
The CSU women’s basketball team ended their regular season in style with an overtime thriller against Winthrop. With the victory, CSU earned a share of third place in the Big South for the regular season. Kelsey Wasmer scored 20 and Ali Schwagmeyer came back from her injury in fine fashion with 13 points and 13 rebounds.
March 7-8 – W. Golf @ Administaff Lady Jaguar Intercollegiate – T-11th
The Lady Bucs finished strong, posting a tournament-best 314 in the final round, moving them into a tie for 11th place overall. Olivia Jordan-Higgins did what she’s done all year finishing fourth at eight-over for the tournament.
March 8-9 – M. Golf @ The Cleveland Palmetto Intercollegiate – 11th
Jacobo Pastor led CSU with a 73 on Tuesday to finish the tournament at +10. Pastor finished tied for 22nd overall.
March 9 – Baseball vs. USC Upstate – W, 8-4
Derek Smith hit two homeruns and CSU came from behind to beat USC Upstate 8-4. Stew Brase earned the start on the mound, but it was a six-inning relief effort by Jesse Cadenhead that earned the victory.
March 9 – W. Tennis vs. #66 UNC Greensboro – W, 4-3
It took victories in the final two singles matches for CSU to beat nationally-ranked UNC Greensboro, but the Lady Bucs proved up to the task. Marija Dzakovic and Andrea Schutte came through to bring CSU from a 3-2 hole for the victory.
March 10 – Baseball vs. Georgia Southern – L, 8-6
Derek Smith hit another homer, but it wasn’t enough as the Eagles posted five runs off Patrick Dolan in the first four innings of the game. Smith and Nick Chinners each had a pair of hits, while Brantley Meier had multiple RBIs for CSU.
March 10 – Softball vs. Georgia Southern – L, 8-0, W, 6-3
One of the hardest things to do is bounce back after a mercy rule loss, but CSU was able to recover and earn a split with Georgia Southern. The SoCon preseason pitcher of the year dominated CSU in game one, while errors mounted to give the Eagles the 8-0 victory. CSU regained its composure and got the bats going in game two, winning 6-3.
March 12 – WBB vs. Coastal Carolina – L, 52-44
Ali Schwagmeyer again got it done on the glass with 12 rebounds, while Kelsey Wasmer continued to lead the offense with 12 points, but it wasn’t enough as the offense put up just a 28 percent shooting effort in the first round of the tournament, falling to the fifth seeded Chanticleers.
March 12 – 14 – Baseball vs. #6 Florida – L, 6-0, L, 16-10, W, 6-3
Pitching seemed to make all the difference as Tyler Thornburg posted possibly the best start of his career, holding Florida to season lows in hits and runs on Sunday, allowing CSU to go into Gainesville and steal a victory. Maybe overwhelmed by the environment in game one, CSU bounced back offensively on Saturday with 10 runs, but again the SEC foe found a way to hold off the Bucs at home.
March 12 – 14 – Softball @ FAU Tournament
Rain wreaked havoc on the FAU tournament all weekend, cancelling Friday’s action altogether. CSU rebounded and got four of the five scheduled games in, taking a victory over Virginia Tech in the process. CSU lost 5-2 to Syracuse and 8-0 to hosting FAU on Saturday, before splitting Sunday’s contests with a 6-0 blanking of Va. Tech and a 4-3 loss to Jacksonville to end the tournament. CSU was also scheduled to face Iowa, but could not fit the game into the two-day tournament.
March 12 – M. Track @ NCAA National Championship
It wasn’t how they wanted to finish the season, knowing their was a chance to qualify for the finals, but both Cornelius Tyler and Javon Young can say they were the first two NCAA Indoor National Championship qualifiers in school history, and will return to CSU next year with hopes of finishing what they began. The most disappointing part of the meet was Tyler coming up lame in the 200m dash as his hamstring popped midway through the race.
