FAU falls to top ranked Gators in Jupiter

With a record crowd in attendance the Owls baseball team fell to the No. 1 ranked Florida Gators 13-2 at Roger Dean Stadium.
Tuesday's game had a playoff atmosphere with a crowd of 3,043 in town to see FAU take on the nation's top ranked baseball team.
Although the Gators proved to be too much for the Owls, jumping out to a 3-0 first inning lead, the game was a great experience for players and fans alike.
"It's another game and you have to dust yourself off and keep on playing," coach John McCormack told fauowlsaccess.com.
Nathan Pittman and Eddie Cassidy hit solo home runs for FAU late in the game, but the Owls pitching staff surrendered 18 hits and committed four errors against the Gators.

“That’s a very good team over there in that dugout and we certainly can’t come out here and give them extra outs,”  McCormack said.

The Owls are back on the field tonight at 6:30 against the Miami Hurricanes in Boca Raton.
