Hicks 1.0 3 3 3 0 0 Dave Bush He is what college baseball is all about-someone who can do it all,” head coach George Greer said.

Reliever Dave Bush pitched the final inning for Greer's Deacons. Bush was making his fourth appearance in the tournament. The junior right hander earned tournament MVP honors and finished the week with a 1- 0 record and two saves.

Wake Forest was able to take advantage of a depleted and tired NC State pitching staff that was working in its seventh game in six days. The Deacons posted a pair of six-run innings in the second and sixth.

In addition to the run support he gave himself, Sullivan received help from Jamie D'Antona and Nick Blue. D'Antona's three-run homer in the second inning was his second of the tournament. D'Antona was 3-for-4 with two runs scored. Blue came into the game 0-for-9 in the tournament, but was 4-for-4, scored three runs and drove in two.

Notes: Bush was on the mound for Wake’s championship clinching out in 1999 in Durham ... Sullivan's home run in the first inning was his fifth leadoff homer of the year.
