No. 13 UNC Evens Series With 8-1 Win At No. 25 UVA

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. --- Home runs by Kyle Datres and Eli Sutherland and 11 strikeouts from J.B. Bukauskas powered No. 13 North Carolina to an 8-1 win over No. 25 Virginia Saturday afternoon at Davenport Field. Bukauskas followed last week's 13-strikeout performance with another gem, allowing just one run on four hits in seven innings to improve to 6-1 on the year.

Bukauskas and Virginia's Adam Haseley (6-1) were locked in a pitcher's duel through four scoreless innings before Datres' second home run of the year put the Tar Heels in front in the fifth.
