May 20, 2023 Nationally-Ranked CNU Baseball Advances to NCAA Regional Final Behind Historic 18-3 Win Over TCNJ WINCHESTER, Va. -- Behind a gutsy pitching performance by junior Jack Braley (5-1) and a patient approach at the plate, the nationally-ranked Christopher Newport baseball team surged into the 2023 NCAA Winchester, Va. Regional Championship after a dominant 18-3 win over TCNJ (24-23) on Saturday evening. The Captains set a new program record for runs scored in an NCAA Tournament game and will return to the Regional Final for the second straight year.  Braley struck out eight, tying his career high and marking the most in a postseason game in over 20 years for the Captains. Most impressively, Braley did it over 6.1 innings of work after being forced into the game due to an injury with two outs in the bottom of the first inning.

The Captains downed Mary Washington, 5-2, and are now 30-7, reaching the 30-win plateau for just the seventh time in program history.  All seven 30-win campaigns for the CNU baseball team have come under head coach John Harvell, who collected his 600th career victory earlier this season. In all six of the previous 30-win seasons, the Captains advanced to NCAA Tournament play including three Division III World Series appearances. This season, the Captains reached 30 wins in just 37 games, tying for the second fastest mark since 2012 when the top-ranked CNU squad started the year 30-6. In 2019, CNU was 30-5 and in 2011 the Captains opened the year with 30 wins in a program record 33 games.
