Lucas Powers No. 23 Wichita State to Series-Opening Win

WICHITA, Kan. – No. 23 Wichita State scored seven of its eight runs in the fifth and sixth innings for a comeback win over South Florida, 8-3, Friday night at Wilkins Stadium.

Wichita State (28-7, 3-1) trailed by two runs entering the fifth inning, but won going away behind a huge at bat from Lauren Lucas and three sixth-inning home runs.

Lucas was 2-for-4 with a double, home run and four RBI. She struck out in each of her first two at bats of the game, but when it mattered most the junior came through.
