Overview
- Adrian toppled No. 2 seed Rowan with a 10-1 win that featured an eight-run sixth inning and a Gabe Jones grand slam, a swing that pushed Rowan into the losers’ bracket.
- Rowan kept its season alive with an 8-3 elimination win over No. 3 Salisbury, a game highlighted by Brayden Davis’ third-inning homer that extended his single-season RBI program record to 86.
- Sophomore Austin Kreyenhagen started that Salisbury game, striking out eight in six innings while allowing one earned run to help the Profs force another elimination matchup.
- Rowan’s tournament ended when Adrian beat the Profs 4-1 on Sunday, with Adrian’s Sean Parker throwing a complete game to secure Rowan’s exit from the College World Series.
- Salisbury was eliminated by Rowan after struggling offensively and defensively in Eastlake, and the results underscore how the DIII double-elimination format and single big innings can quickly reshape the bracket and teams’ seasons.
