CHARLESTON, S.C. --- The College of Charleston baseball team will host NCAA Division II foe Emmanuel (Ga.) in a single game on Friday afternoon at Patriots Point as the Cougars look to bounce back from a Wednesday setback to Wofford on the road. First pitch on Friday is scheduled for 4:00 p.m.
Game Preview
The Cougars have won seven of their last 10 after splitting a pair of midweek matchups with The Citadel and Wofford this week. Emmanuel recently wrapped up its regular season with a four-game split against King (Tenn.) last weekend.
Scouting Emmanuel
The Lions enter the weekend with a 17-22 overall record and a 14-18 mark in Conference Carolinas action. Emmanuel is batting .275 as a team this season with 29 home runs and 56 doubles.
Tony Matos leads the Lions with a .353 batting average while former Cougar Justin Henle is batting .343 with nine homers and 32 RBI. Emmanuel's pitching staff sports a 6.36 ERA and has struck out 230 batters in 302.2 innings.
Series History with Emmanuel
Charleston and Emmanuel have never met on the diamond.
Last Time Out
The Cougars split a pair of midweek matchups with The Citadel and Wofford earlier this week. Charleston blitzed The Citadel, 11-2, on Tuesday before falling to Wofford by a score of 12-5 on Wednesday.
Hammering Homers
The Cougars' power bats have exploded to life over the last 12 games. Led by senior outfielder Harrison Hawkins, Charleston has launched 18 homers in that span including back-to-back three bomb efforts against Clemson and James Madison last week. Hawkins established two new program records with one swing of the bat on Tuesday, setting the Cougars' team and individual single-season record for grand slams with the teams' seventh and his third this spring.
Scoring in the Clutch
Charleston has done its fair share of scoring with two outs with nearly 50 percent (93 of 190) of their total runs coming with two down. More than 44 percent (75 of 169) of the Cougars' RBI have come with two outs led by senior Harrison Hawkins, who has accounted for 25 of those RBI. Hawkins leads the team with a .326 (15-for-46) batting average with runners in scoring position. The Cougars have scored 93 total runs with two outs including 64 over the last 17 games.
