SALT LAKE CITY (April 11, 2021) – Washington State clinched a series win over Utah with a 5-3 victory at Smith's Ballpark Sunday afternoon.
The Cougars (16-11, 4-8 Pac-12) claimed Friday's opener and held off a couple late-inning threats Sunday to clinch their first conference road series since 2017 and post the first conference series win under head coach .
Washington State received two hit-games from shortstop and first baseman who both scored twice while right fielder drove in two runs. Four WSU pitchers combined to allow just two earned runs as junior picked up the win with four innings of relief and redshirt-sophomore picked up his first career save after striking out two in the ninth.
