Baseball Aces play #10 Vandy tough before falling in Nashville

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Behind strong pitching, the University of Evansville baseball team kept things tight with tenth ranked Vanderbilt, however the Purple Aces couldn't catch the Commodores on the scoreboard, falling in Nashville, Tennessee, 6-1, Tuesday night.

"We competed well against one of the best teams in the Country tonight", said University of Evansville baseball head coach Wes Carroll. "They got the big two-out hits against us, and we couldn't come up with a hit when we needed it."

Junior starting pitcher Austin Allinger looked sharp in pitching the opening of the frames, allowing just one hit while tossing a pair of scoreless innings.
