GAME LOG: Campbell Walks Off ECU 9-8, Forces Game Three on Sunday

The Longhorns take on the Pirates looking to extend their season at least one more game.

The Texas Longhorns knew that going into the Greenville Super Regional would be a hostile environment, and it showed in full force on Friday. The Longhorns pitching struggled mightily, as even usually reliable ace Pete Hansen only lasted four innings in what would be a 13-7 loss for Texas. Now, Texas needs to win on Saturday to force a game three on Sunday if they want to keep their Omaha dreams alive.
