Hurricanes right-handed pitcher Jake Smith took the mound against Appalachian State on Saturday hoping to help lead his team to its first series win in three weeks.
After having garnered his first win as a Hurricane versus Florida Gulf Coast on April 27, the junior college transfer picked up where he left off, striking out six batters while allowing only two hits.
Backing him up was a lineup that came out swinging, as Miami (26-15, 15-14 Atlantic Coast Conference) sparked a 10-run second inning to run away with the ball game 16-1 at Mark Light Field.

The productive beginning for App State’s offense followed a noteworthy start on the mound for Terrell.
Recruited as a two-way talent out of Franklin, Terrell contributed both as a pitcher and designated hitter in the Mountaineers’ 14-7 home victory Tuesday against North Carolina A&T on Beaver Field at Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium.
App State (6-2) jumped ahead with a six-run third and led 9-2 after five innings before having its lead cut to 9-7 entering the bottom of the seventh. The Mountaineers responded with a four-run frame against the Aggies (2-6).
