Baseball Drops Season Opener To No. 1 Tampa

Tampa, Fla. – Junior Tyler Keith hit his first homer of the season, but the Post University baseball team lost its season opener to defending NCAA champion and No. 1 Tampa on Friday evening.

 After Tampa scored two in the bottom of the first, Keith cut the deficit in half with a homer in the top of the third to make it a 2-1 game.

Tampa added five runs in the fourth, three on a homer from Josh Rulli to make it a 7-1 game. The Spartans tacked on two more runs in the bottom of the seventh.

Post cut the deficit to 9-3 on RBI singles by seniors Tyler Melko and Alec Olsen, but it'd be as close as the Eagles would get the rest of the way.

The two teams play again on Saturday at 3 p.m.
