Dylan Campbell’s walk-off hit gives No. 9 seed Texas 9-8 win over No. 8 seed East Carolina

The No. 9 seed Texas Longhorns forced a third game in the Greenville Super Regional by mounting a remarkable comeback against the No. 8 seed East Carolina Pirates at Clark-LeClair Stadium on Saturday, winning in walk-off fashion as right fielder Dylan Campbell slashed an 1-2 fastball into the right-field corner with the bases loaded and two outs.

Texas trailed 6-2 after a five-run fifth inning by East Carolina and trailed 7-2 after the top half of the seventh inning. With only nine outs remaining, the dormant bats finally woke up for the Longhorns as center fielder Douglas Hodo III hit a two-run home run.
