HATTIESBURG, Mississippi – One of the nation's best home run hitting teams may have ensured itself a place in the NCAA Baseball Tournament Friday afternoon on the strength of its big bats.

Carter Trice blasted a grand slam over the left field fence, and Andy Garriola added a two-run home run two batters later, in a six-run fourth inning that powered Old Dominion past Charlotte, 13-4, in a Conference USA Tournament elimination game.
