After going down one-two-three in the top of the first, the Pirates found themselves down 2-0 going into the second inning after UNCW recorded three hits in the bottom of the first.
The Seahawks tacked on three more runs in the bottom of the third and another in the bottom of the fourth to extend their lead to 6-0 while ECU's offense struggled to generate hits or runs heading into the sixth inning.
