MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — On the 11th day of spring, West Virginia and No. 22 Oklahoma played the rubber game of their weekend series amid snow flurries and blustery winds.
“Advantage Mountaineers,” said coach Randy Mazey.
While the weather might’ve assisted, Kade Strowd’s repeated ability to escape jams and Marques Inman’s two-run homer were the real factors in a 5-1 victory Sunday.
After dropping their first four Big 12 games, the Mountaineers (16-11, 2-4) achieved a better frame of mind by posting back-to back wins over the Sooners (22-7, 4-2).
“We’re creeping back in,” Mazey said.
