Advertiser Staff

Turhan Folse pitched 3 2/3 innings of two-hit, scoreless relief as Hawai'i Pacific held off Southern Connecticut State, 3-2, in a non-conference baseball game last night at Central O'ahu Regional Park.

Folse struck out five, including two in a row to strand runners at second and third in the seventh as the Sea Warriors improved to 15-9.

Earlier, in the completion of a suspended game from Wednesday, Spencer Omalza and Jason Shimizu drew back-to-back walks with the bases loaded in the bottom of the seventh as HPU rallied for a 13-12 win over the Owls (4-15).

In Wednesday's series-opener, Tripper Chung's three-run triple sparked a five-run sixth and Danny Lee's sacrifice fly with one out in the seventh scored the winning run as HPU triumphed, 6-5.

HILO BEATEN, 16-5

Justin Carr hit a three-run homer and Ryan Curry had four hits and four RBIs as Bradley beat Hawai'i-Hilo, 16-5, last night in a non-conference seven-inning baseball game at Wong Stadium.

Paul Rice and Mike McMillan each had three hits for the Braves (10-7).

Ronel Trias had two hits and two RBIs for Hilo (5-24).


SOFTBALL

BYUH FALLS, 6-2

Nicole Seymour's two-run double in the fifth broke a 2-2 tie and lifted Grand Canyon past Brigham Young-Hawai'i, 6-2, yesterday in a Pacific West Conference game at Phoenix, Ariz.

Jana Dewey hit a two-run homer for the Seasiders (10-11, 1-4 PacWest).

The second game was postponed because of bad weather.
