After losing to Oral Roberts earlier this season, the Shockers were eager to redeem themselves for the home opener. On Tuesday afternoon, Wichita State scored four runs in the bottom of the second inning and never trailed the Golden Eagles leading to a final score of 6-4.
The Shockers picked up their fourth consecutive win as they ended ORU’s eight-game winning streak.
“Offensively, we had a big inning and we held on till the end,” Head Coach Eric Wedge said.
Joining the starting lineup for the WSU was freshman Will Stark. Stark delivered a two out RBI single into left center, earning the first two runs of the game.
