Seahawks picked up an insurance run in the 8th as sophomore DH David Fanshawe (Miami, Fla.) hit an infield single to plate the final run of the game. Although, the Panthers threatened with runners on second and third with two outs in the 9th, Closer Danny Kern (Fr.--Pompano Beach, Fla.) entered the game and struck out the only batter he faced to earn his fourth save of the season.
The win advances the Seahawks to the second round of the Southern Conference Tournament to face #2 Palm Beach C.C. (36-14) in a best of three series.
