CORVALLIS, Ore. – Cooper Hjerpe set a career-high with 11 strikeouts as Oregon State defeated No. 7 Arizona, 3-1, Saturday night at Goss Stadium at Coleman Field.
The lefty stymied the Arizona offense, which came into the night batting .330. He allowed just two hits and a run – on a sixth-inning double steal – and surpassed his previous career-best of nine strikeouts. The freshman earned the win to improve to 3-5 on the year.
Hjerpe was backed by Will Frisch and Jake Mulholland, who combined for scoreless frames in the eighth and ninth innings.
