Thursday night’s conference matchup between the Pilots and No. 24 BYU pitted the Cougars high-powered offense against one of the top pitchers in the WCC—Portland’s Jordan Wilcox. That Cougar offense would prove to be too much for Wilcox and the Pilots as BYU cruised to an 8-2 win.
The loss dropped the Pilots to 13-13 on the year and 1-3 in WCC play while BYU improved to 21-3 and 5-2 in WCC play
The Cougar’s offense, which leads the nation in runs per game at 9.5, got off to a hot start against the Pilot’s ace.
