NIU Baseball: 0-4 Weekend in the Lonestar State

Not a great doubleheader Sunday

Game 3: NIU 5, Texas Tech 8


Summary

It's Jeff Thomas' world and everybody's living in it. Keep going strong, my man. Sure we had 13 hits, but we also had 13 strikeouts and no walks. The pitching performances were fine by Holdenrid, Atkenson and Deain, except 3B Jordin Hood committed 3 errors in this game, costing 2 unearned runs to score.

Top Performers

Sr. LF Jeff Thomas - 4 for 5 with an RBI and no strikeouts
Jr. DH Brian Smith - 3 for 5 with a double and no strikeouts
So. 1B Dave Reynolds - 2 for 5 with a double, an RBI, 2 runs and 1 strikeout

Sr. RHP Dan Atkenson - 2.2 IP, 4 hits, 1 ER, 4 K's and 0 BBs



Game 4: NIU 5, Texas State 15
Box

Summary

Obviously Hood was upset about his performance from his first game and belted 2 out of the park for good measure. Copp didn't have a great start giving up 10 ER in 4.2 innings.

Top Performers

So. 3B Jordin Hood - 2 for 5 with 2 HR, 3 RBIs and 3 runs and no strikeouts
Sr. RF Danny Reed - 2 for 4 with a double and 2 strikouts


Series MVP

Sr. LF Jeff Thomas: 10 for 17 (.588) with a double and a stolen base
