VMI made it a 1-1 game with a run in the second. Red-shirt sophomore Will Knight led off with a triple and scored on a Cody Warner groundout.
Trailing 3-1 in the top of the fifth, Warner led off with a single and scored after a JT Inskeep single and throwing error.
UNF scored single runs in each of the first three innings and plated three in the fifth, fueled by a two-run homer from Ricky Presno.
Warner finished 2-4 with a run and an RBI and Knight was also 2-4. Freshman Trey Morgan threw two scoreless innings of relief and Sam Ewald sent down all three batters he faced.
