Back-to-back walk-off wins in extra innings made for a long day at Reese Smith, Jr. Field, but Middle Tennessee came away with a doubleheader sweep and a series win against Big 10 power Indiana on Saturday.
"I'm extermely proud of how we came out and battled the entire day after last night, as bad as it was," head coach Jim McGuire said, referring to Friday's 14-4 loss to the Hoosiers. "I didn't sleep very much after that performance, but we came out and the mission of the day was to compete one inning at a time."
Tyler Troutt started the day off for the Blue Raiders, throwing 5 1/3 strong innings in game one of the doubleheader.
