Owls Take Down UCF on the Road

2/25/2025 10:20:00 PM | Baseball

ORLANDO, Fla. – Florida Atlantic baseball (7-1) went on the road for the first time on Tuesday night and came away with a 4-3 win over UCF (6-2).

THE BEGINNING

The Owls opened the scoring in the third inning and doubled the lead on a Jake Millan solo home run in the fourth. UCF responded with three in the bottom of the fourth to take its first lead.

THE TURNING POINT

The Owls rallied with two outs in the sixth. Carter Brady and Brando Leroux drew walks, and Kyle Boylston lined an opposite-field single to right field to tie the game. Jake Duer then beat out an infield single to bring in the go-ahead run.

THE FINISH

UCF had four chances with runners in scoring positions in the last four innings. Each time, the FAU pitching staff shut it down. The Knights had two on with no outs in the eighth before MJ Bollinger came on and recorded two strikeouts and a flyout.

In the ninth, UCF put the leadoff man on and advanced him all the way to third. Bollinger dug in again and induced three groundouts to lock down the victory.

THE BATS

Millan's home run was his team-leading third of the season
Duer doubled and singled to run his NCAA-leading hit total to 19

THE ARMS

Zach Kilby started and cruised through the first three innings before running into trouble in the fourth
Max Martzolf was first out of the bullpen and was credited with his third win of the season after 1.1 scoreless
Kide Adetuyi and Braden Ostrander combined to cover the seventh and eighth innings
Bollinger earned his second save of the season
