Bulldogs slam Cats, 15-0

In one of the most embarrassing losses for Catamount baseball in recent memory, the Cats were demolished 0-15, by a team that seems to have the Catamounts number.

This loss was inflicted by a team that has one of the worst records in the NCAA, a team that is in last place in the Big South Conference, a team that has 21 losses in the season and was on a eight game losing streak, the UNC Asheville Bulldogs.

Not only was the Cats shutout for the first time this season, last night's melt down by the Catamounts was Asheville's first shutout this season, and the first-ever Bulldog shutout over Western Carolina in all previous 73 meetings.

WCU pitchers allowed seven hitters to slam multiple-hits, including UNCA's Tommy Houmard who went 4-for-5, and Ian Graham who drove in five runs on a 3-for-4 showing.

Bulldog starter Corey Randall pitched six innings and allowed just two hits, then Dean Roland retired all six hitters he faced while Dillon Tabar pitched a scoreless ninth. In comparison, the five Catamount pitchers that faced UNCA allowed 20 hits, with earned 15 runs.

The Bulldogs have now won 4 of the last 5 meetings between the two teams stretching back over the last three seasons.
