Miller Ladusau got the offense going in the first inning with a two-run home run, followed by a sacrifice fly by Miesse and an RBI infield single by Crew Parke for the 4-0 lead.
Chance Reisdorph homered for the Islanders in the top of the second but the Wildcats added four more in the second. After driving in two runs with a single, Logan Britt stole second and third before scampering home on a wild pitch. Grayson Tatrow added a solo home run for the 8-1 lead.
TAMU-CC chipped away at the lead and clawed to within 8-7 before Bash Randle came through with an RBI double in the eighth to make it 9-7.
The Islanders tied the game in the top of the ninth.
Tatrow was hit by a pitch to start the ninth, moved to second on an error and third on a balk before crossing the plate with the game-winning run on Miesse's single into left-center.
Blake Anderson picked up the win in relief to improve to 4-0.
Tatrow, Britt and Garrett Williams had two hits each to pace the ACU 11-hit offense.
