Herd baseball earns first sweep of season

Thundering Herd baseball tallied its first series sweep of the season this weekend in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, winning all three games against the Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders (17-15, 5-7 C-USA). With the sweep, the Herd is now back to a winning overall record (14-13, 4-8 C-USA) and no longer sits last in the conference standings.

“Our guys really showed up this weekend and played as a team,” head coach Jeff Waggoner said. “It took everybody; all three starters really set the tone this weekend and gave us quality starts and help save our bullpen. Everybody from the pitching staff came into the game and did a great job and we had timely hits.
