Willie Carmona had four hits including a home run and drove in three to lead fourth-seed Stony Brook to its first regional title with a 10-6 win over UCF on Monday night. Stony Brook (50-12) received a valiant effort from Tyler Johnson (11-1), who was pitching on two days rest. Johnson allowed four runs in 6 1-3 innings while throwing 119 pitches. The Seawolves are the third No. 4 seed to win a regional (Missouri, 2006; Fresno State, 2008) since the field was expanded to 64 teams in 2001. They will travel to Baton Rouge, La. to face No. 7 national seed LSU in a best-of-three Super Regionals. D.J. Hicks hit two home runs UCF (45-17), which led 3-0 before Stony Brook scored five runs in the fourth keyed by a two-run double by Carmona. Pat Cantwell hit a two-run single for a 7-3 lead and Carmona's homer capped the scoring for the Seawolves. UCF starter Brian Adkins (3-6) allowed four runs in 3 1-3 innings.
