Northwestern took 2 of 3 from Maryland over the weekend to end the season with their first Big Ten series victory at home.
On the last weekend of the regular season, in its last home Big Ten series, the Northwestern pitching staff turned things up a notch.
On Thursday, Senior Brandon Magallones delivered the best performance of the season for an Northwestern pitcher. Magallones went 9 innings, struck out 7, and allowed only three base runners. To illustrate just how dominant Magallones was on the afternoon, after giving up his only walk of the day, he immediately picked off the runner to end the inning.
