BUIES CREEK, N.C.-Campbell rallied for two runs in the ninth, bringing the tying run to the plate, but fell short as Belmont topped the Camels 12-8 in game two of Saturday's Atlantic Sun doubleheader at Taylor Field.

Senior second baseman Ellis Lowe continued to etch his name atop Campbell's record books, posting his 167 and 168^th career RBIs to break the CU all-time mark. Lowe passed Jeff Huff (167), who starred for the Camels from 1998-01. The San Diego, Calif. native also owns the CU hits, at-bats, runs, total bases and doubles records.

The Bruins also came away with a 7-2 win in game on behind the complete game performance of starting pitcher Matt Hamann.

Belmont improves to 23-18 overall and 12-9 in A-Sun play, winning its third consecutive series. The Camels, meanwhile, fall to 15-28 on the year and 2-19 in conference games.

In game two the Bruins collected nine runs through the first five innings, including four in the second and fourth, but only two were earned off CU starter Jake Smith. Campbell committed three errors in the top of the second, allowing three of those four runs to score.

In the bottom of the fifth, Lowe came to the plate with a runner on and none out. On the first pitch he saw, Lowe pounded the ball over the leftfield wall for his second homer of the season. The two RBIs pushed Lowe's career total to 168, breaking the Campbell career record.

After the Camels added another run on a Colin Parker RBI single in the sixth, the Camels trailed only 9-6 with three at-bats remaining.

The Bruins, however, tagged three runs in the top of the eighth when Tim Egerton sent a full count offering deep for a three-run home run, giving Belmont a 12-6 advantage.

In the bottom of the ninth, however, the Camels mounted a charge with two out, as Lowe, who was 4-for-5 in the game, singled. Kyle Holmstrom then doubled to plate a run, and two batters later, Blake Boyce drove in another to bring the score to 12-8 with two on.

After an Erick Gaylord base hit, the Camels had the bases loaded with two away. Jon Ivie then induced a groundout to end the game.

Josh Davis earned the win, going five innings with five runs on nine hits and two strikeouts, moving to 4-0 on the season.

Smith was charged with the loss for Campbell to go to 2-3 on the year. The junior allowed nine runs, but only two earned on eight hits in 4 1/3 frames with a walk.

Jared Breen led the Bruins in game one, going 4-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored. Greg Brody added a 3-for-4 effort with three RBIs and two runs scored.

Ryne Briley was 2-for-3 in game one for the Camels.

Hamann picked up the win to go to 5-1 on the season, tossing a complete game with seven hits on two runs with seven strikeouts and a walk.

Frank Zier took the loss with six runs, four earned, on six hits in 5 1/3 innings on the mound. The junior also struck out and walked three. Ryan Mattes pitched the final 3 2/3 with a run on four hits with a strikeout and a walk.

The Camels will be in action next week at Longwood, taking on the Lancers in a doubleheader on April 28 in Farmville, Va.
