BUIES CREEK, N.C. - Campbell picked up a pair of wins over UNCW on a drizzly night Wednesday at Amanda Littlejohn Stadium.
Winners of five straight, the Camels improve to 35-13 overall while UNCW drops to 18-24.
Game One: Campbell 4, UNCW 3
Claudia Ware recorded her second walk-off hit in as many games as Campbell earned a 4-3 win over UNCW in the first game of the doubleheader.
Campbell jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the third on a UNCW error and RBI doubles from Ware and Delaney McDilda.
The Seahawks knotted the game in the top of the seventh as Tayler Vitola's RBI single cut the deficit to one. A potential game-ending double-play was overturned as Skylar Stockton scored the tying run on a sacrifice bunt by Arial Pearce.
The Camels answered in the bottom of the seventh as Charlie Montgomery hit a leadoff double down the left field line. Montgomery scored as Ware connected on the walk-off hit to centerfield.
Isabella Smith (23-8) picked up the win in the circle after pitching the final inning. Kayla Howald started and tossed 6.0 innings, allowing three earned runs and four hits.
Carrigan Ewers (1-5) took the loss for the Seahawks after giving up the winning run.
Game Two: Campbell 4, UNCW 2
Campbell picked up a 4-2 win over UNCW in the second game of the doubleheader.
Ware went 1-for-1 with two walks, while both McDilda and Montgomery finished 1-for-3 with one RBI.
The Camels took a 4-0 lead after three innings before the Seahawks scored two runs in the fifth off a CU error and a wild pitch. Smith, who tossed a complete game for the Camels, struck out two batters in the sixth and used just eight pitches in the seventh to end the game.
Smith (24-8) earned her 24th win of the season, tying Andrea Nardolillo (1993) for the second-most single season wins in Campbell history. The redshirt-sophomore struck out nine batters and allowed one earned run off four hits.
Kara Hammock (9-8) took the loss for the Seahawks, tossing the first three innings and allowing one earned run off four hits.
Campbell will enjoy a weekend off before returning to action in its final home games of the regular season in a doubleheader Tuesday against Norfolk State.
