On Elon from Thursday:
Mike Melillo sent a 2-0 pitch over the wall in center in the bottom of the eighth inning to become Elon’s all-time home run king with 38 career dingers, but it was not enough as the Samford Bulldogs rallied for three ninth inning runs and pushed across another in the 10th as the Phoenix fell 11-10 in a Southern Conference baseball contest from Latham Park. Melillo’s homer was the 38th of his career and broke a tie with Scott Brendle (1996-99).
