MORAGA, Calif. — Saint Mary's offense put up big numbers in the first three innings of their West Coast Conference opener against BYU but the Cougars would fight back with crooked numbers in back-to-back frames to take the series opener, 10-6.
SMC plated the first run of the day in the bottom of the first. Marissa Montelongo was on first base when Indya Smith delivered a single through the right side which allowed Montelongo to take the extra bag and head to third. An errant throw from the Cougars' right fielder would let the freshman round third and head home to put the Gaels up early, 1-0.
