WSSU eliminated from NCAA baseball playoffs

ERIE, Pennsylvania -- The best season in Winston-Salem State baseball history came to a crushing end on Sunday afternoon in the Atlantic Region playoffs.

Tyler Orris singled up the middle to score Ted Williams in the bottom of the ninth as Millersville ended WSSU’s season with a 6-5 victory.

The elimination game sent Millersville to the championship game that was played later in the day against Mercyhurst. The winner of that game advanced to the College World Series, which starts in Cary on Saturday.

The Rams, the fourth seed and 21st-ranked team in the country, end the season with a 42-15 record, the best in school history.

The Marauders, the second-seed, improved to 45-10.
