‘It’s everything to me:’ Garrett Kocis leads baseball to walk-off win over Kansas

Garrett Kocis knew it right off the bat. After two years of injuries and hardships, Kocis launched a game-winning walk-off home run on Wednesday, sending his Shocker teammates into hysterics and sealing the 7-5 victory over Kansas.

Last year, Kocis was off to the best season of his career, launching a career-high 12 home runs and led WSU in OPS through 25 games of the 2021 season. Then a broken wrist sidelined him during his breakout season.
