Baseball Stumbles Against WVU Tech

BLUEFIELD, W.V. – The Indiana University Kokomo baseball team suffered a setback on Sunday as they dropped a River States Conference doubleheader to West Virginia Tech. The Cougars comeback attempt in the opener fell short, falling 8-6 before being blanked, 2-0 in the nightcap. 
 
Game One Key Moments
  • The Cougars struck first in the top of the opening frame as Noah Hurlock launched a solo home run to put IUK up 1-0. 
  • WVU Tech blasted a two-run shot in the home half of the first to move in front by a score of 2-1. 
  • The Golden Bears added four runs in the second inning to take a 6-1 lead. 
  • Pat Mills got a run back with a solo shot in the third. 
  • Two runs from the Golden Bears in the fifth made it an 8-2 game. 
  • Riley Garczynski drove in a pair of runs after Luke Hanson and Thomas Obergfell reached on consecutive errors by the Golden Bears. Hurlock added another run with an RBI-double to make it 8-5. 
  • Obergfell led off the Cougars' last at-bat with a double and would score on a Garczynski single. After a double play, Hurlock singled and gave way to pinch runner Bryce Lenz. Lenz eventually got to third after a Jared Heard single and a walk by Dylan Steele. 
  • The Cougars would leave the bases loaded to end the game.
Game One Pitching

Game Two Key Moments
