After coming back from being down 8-1, the Hoos tied it in the eighth only to fall in the ninth as the Demon Deacons takes the third game of the series

Thanks to their sweep in Friday night's doubleheader, Virginia was able to come away with the series win despite dropping game three by a score of 9-8. Wake Forest used a six run sixth inning to take a commanding 8-1 lead that looked like it might be enough to salvage a weekend win. But the Hoos came roaring back getting two runs in the sixth, three runs in the seventh, and the two tying runs in the eighth.
