MONTGOMERY, Ala. – Coastal Carolina took advantage of early miscues by Little Rock as the Trojans dropped the first game of the Sun Belt Tournament Tuesday morning at Riverwalk Stadium in Montgomery.
The Trojans (21-29) committed three errors and allowed Coastal Carolina(27-23) to score six unearned runs (out of nine total) in the first four innings, creating an insurmountable deficit. The Chanticleers utilized the tournament's mercy-rule in the 15-1 (7 inning) final.
Little Rock's lone run came in the bottom of the seventh as Miguel Soto drew a one-out walk. He then moved to third on Tyler Williams' double down the left field line then was driven in on an RBI groundout by John Michal Russ.
