The Series

Scouting the Opponent
North Florida (14-12) enters the non-conference matchup after splitting a doubleheader with Campbell, but took the series, 2-1. The Ospreys needed extra innings to complete the series, but managed to pull out a 5-4 victory over the Camels in game three.
Last Time Out
Strong pitching led Georgia Southern (14-11) to record its first conference series sweep of the season taking three games from UNC Greensboro over the weekend. UNCG held a 3-0 advantage in the opening game with a strong third inning, but the Eagles picked up a run in the fifth before Kyle Blackburn (Marietta, Ga.) belted his first of three home runs in the series in the sixth to tie the game. Left-handed pitcher Jake Brown (Forest Hill, Md.) threw his second complete game of the season and third of his career for the win Friday night.
GS took game one, 6-4 and posted four insurance runs in the eighth of game two to seal an 8-3 victory on Saturday. Matt Murray (Spring City, Pa.) threw 7.0 complete innings with Dexter Bobo (Cumming, Ga.) and Colin Snow (Alpharetta, Ga.) splitting the last two innings.
Andy Moye (Alpharetta, Ga.) led the Eagles to their first shutout since 2007, shutting down the Spartans 12-0. Moye recorded a career-high 13 strikeouts facing 30 batters and allowed no walks in 8.0 innings.
Moye Named Pitcher of the Week
Junior right-hander Andy Moye was named the Southern Conference 'Pitcher of the Week' for March 22-28 as announced the league office Monday. Moye closed out the first conference series sweep for Georgia Southern this season on Sunday against UNC Greensboro.
Moye led the Eagles to its first shutout since 2007 by throwing 8.0 flawless innings against the Spartans in a 12-0 win. The junior matched his career-high in innings pitched while striking out a career-high 13 batters.
Moye scattered five hits and had excellent control by not surrendering a walk the entire day. The Spartans put runners on second base in the first, third, fifth and eighth innings, but Moye never allowed a runner to reach third, as he improved to 3-2 on the season.
