NORFOLK, Va. -- It was another Senior Day, Mother's Day miracle for Old Dominion and the Monarchs completed the sweep of Marshall in walk-off fashion on Sunday at the Bud Metheny Complex with a come-from-behind 9-8 victory.

Old Dominion (32-18, 14-13) trailed 8-3 in the eighth inning, but rallied for three in the eighth and then won it with three more in the ninth. The wild comeback was reminiscent of ODU's 2017 victory over FIU, 11-10, on Senior Day and Mother's Day, in which ODU overcame a 10-2 deficit with a nine-run eighth inning.
