Figueroa's Walk-Off Squeeze Clinches Series Sweep

LITTLE ROCK- The Trojans completed the sweep of Georgia State with a walk-off squeeze bunt from Eldridge Figueroa to grab a 3-2 win in the series finale Sunday afternoon at Gary Hogan Field.

"We told [Figueroa], if he gets on, if it's first-and-third, we're 'safety-ing' because that's in his tool-bag, it's what he does," said Head Coach Chris Curry.

Jose Torres produced a quality start in what would prove to be a pitcher's duel between him and Panthers' starter Trey Horton. Torres threw six and 1/3 innings without allowing an earned run, while punching out six batters.
