BUIES CREEK, N.C. – Carl Wise knocked in four on a homer and a three-run double, and the College of Charleston ended No. 27 Campbell's 14-game winning streak with a 10-3 decision Tuesday.

Campbell's (17-3) 14 wins in a row stood as the second-longest streak in the country behind second-ranked Texas A&M's 21 games. The win streak is the second-longest in program history, trailing on the 2012 team's 18 straight.

Charleston improved to 11-6 with the win.

Wise went 2-for-3, also scoring three times. His bases clearing double with two outs in the top of the sixth extended the Cougars' lead to 7-1, highlighting a four-run inning. Wise then homered with one out in the top of the eighth, the first of back to back home runs from CofC. Blake Butler followed with a 0-1 offering over the wall in left.

Brandon Glazer (3-0) picked up the win, going 3 2/3 with an unearned run on three hits with a strikeout in a planned short start.

Will Detwiler allowed a pair of Campbell runs in the seventh on a Steven Leonard RBI bunt single and a Kyle Leady RBI sacrifice bunt. Carter Love, Wade Arduini and Chase Henry all combined for 4 1/3 of scoreless work for the Cougars.

Campbell starter Grant Yost (2-2) was charged with the loss, allowing seven runs on seven hits while striking out three and walking four in 5 2/3. Five Camels came out of the bullpen in the loss, highlighted by Chris Walkerow's 1-2-3 ninth, striking out his first batter in his first appearance of the season.

CU centerfielder Cedric Mullins extended his hit streak to 13 games in the loss, coming up a home run shy of the cycle. Mullins led off the bottom of the first with a triple, and followed with a single in the fifth and a double in the seventh.

The Camels will head to longtime rival UNC Wilmington on Wednesday. First pitch is slated for 6 p.m. at Brooks Field.

Campbell continues Big South play at High Point this weekend, taking on the Panthers March 20-22. CU makes the trip to Charleston, S.C. on March 25, while UNCW comes to Buies Creek on April 29.
