MT. PLEASANT, S.C. – Northeastern baseball (12-11-1, 0-3 CAA) fell in its first CAA weekend series of the year, losing the series finale with College of Charleston (15-9, 3-0 CAA) by a score of 7-1 at Patriots Point.
 

• The Huskies got on the board first for the first time all weekend with a trio of singles – in the top of the third, catcher JP Olson took the first pitch he saw and hit it up the right field line with one out. Two batters later, Luke Beckstein and Mike Sirota each hit back to back singles up the middle, advancing Olson to second and sending him home for the 1-0 lead.

• Wyatt Scotti (5-1) suffered his first loss of the season, getting the start and going 5.1 innings. He allowed 10 hits, five earned runs, no walks, and struck out three.
• The bullpen duo of Eric Yost and Dennis Colleran kept the Cougars in check as the Huskies attempted to rally - both pitchers combined for just two walks, no hits, no runs, and three strikeouts in 2.2 innings of work.
