Tolle's Strong Start Boosts Shockers Past Tigers

WICHITA, Kan. -- allowed just one run on five hits over seven excellent innings, and the Wichita State offense roughed up Memphis ace Dalton Fowler in an 8-1 win on Saturday afternoon at Eck Stadium.

The Shockers (26-16, 10-4) have now won seven consecutive conference games and have moved into sole possession of first place in the American Athletic Conference standings.

Tolle (8-1) put together yet another quality start, striking out nine while issuing just one walk. He allowed a run on three hits in the second inning, but bounced back with five scoreless frames while the Shocker offense took control.
