Florida International U

FIU baseball swept by Mississippi

From Miami Herald Wire Reports

    ORDER REPRINT →

February 21, 2016 11:37 PM

The bats remained on fire for the 24th-ranked Mississippi baseball team, as the host Rebels scored nine runs in the bottom of the first en route to a 16-5 victory over FIU on Sunday afternoon. The victory gave the Rebels (3-0) a three-game sweep to begin the season.

Ole Miss is off to a 3-0 start for the fourth time in the past six seasons and ninth time overall under coach Mike Bianco.

Every Rebel in the starting lineup recorded at least one hit. Ole Miss scored 16 runs on 12 hits, led Tate Blackman, Will Golsan and J.B. Woodman with two hits apiece. Blackman capped off an impressive start to his sophomore campaign with his third consecutive multi-hit game, and Woodman belted a three-run homer for his first of the season. Making his first start as a Rebel, freshman shortstop Ryan Olenek tallied a team-high four RBI.

On the mound, Sean Johnson (1-0) pitched five innings in his first action since undergoing Tommy John surgery last season. The redshirt junior allowed four runs (two earned) on seven hits and two walks, while striking out five.
