KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Led by a two-home run night by senior Vincent Jackson, the Diamond Vols overpowered the UNC Asheville Bulldogs in an 11-0 shutout final on Wednesday night at Lindsey Nelson Stadium.
Jackson (2-for-3, 4 RBI) posted a career night for the Big Orange, blasting a solo homer in the fifth and becoming the first Vol since 2010 to record an inside-the-park home run with a fly ball to left field in the sixth.
Senior Chris Hall (2-for-4, RBI) provided the Volunteers with a one-run lead in the first, reaching on a stand-up double and stealing third to score on a throwing error by UNC Asheville's catcher Lucas Owens.
