FAU Baseball (22-12, 7-5 C-USA) staved off the No. 15 Florida Gulf Coast University Eagles’ (26-7, 10-2 ASUN) offense for a 5-4 victory on the road Tuesday night at Swanson Stadium in Fort Myers, Fla.

The victory secures the season series after the Owls’ 8-4 victory over FGCU a week earlier, and marks head coach John McCormack’s 500th career win.

“It’s a fantastic thing for the program,” said McCormack.
