MOBILE, Ala. – No. 4 Troy shutout the No. 7 seed Georgia State, 5-0, to advance in the Sun Belt Tournament before dropping a heartbreaker to the No. 9 seed Coastal Carolina, 5-2, to end the Trojans' tournament run Saturday at Jaguar Field.
Behind 5.0 one-hit innings from sophomore Libby Baker, the Trojans (31-21) powered past Georgia State (21-33) to advance into the nightcap.
After falling behind 2-0 to Coastal Carolina (31-21), a game-tying solo shot from Kelly Horne was not enough as the Chanticleers plated a run in the top of the seventh to end Troy's tournament run.
