Minnesota Defeats Wake Forest 8-3 & Ends Deacs' Season
Dean ShoreThe Wake Forest Demon Deacons could not defeat Minnesota for the second time in three days, and have been eliminated from the NCAA Tournament. Wake Forest won Friday's game 5-3, but fell 8-3 on Sunday afternoon.
The Deacs won the first contest against Minnesota thanks to a very strong outing from starting pitcher Parker Dunshee, but the pitching was not there on Sunday for Wake. Connor Johnstone threw 93 pitches in just 4.2 innings, and allowed 3 earned runs (4 in total). Wake needed a longer outing from Johnstone today. Will Craig, who is normally a reliable pitcher, allowed 4 runs in just 1.1 innings of work.
