WSU was unable to complete a comeback late against UConn in the second round of the AAC Tournament. They lost 9-7.

After the Huskies struck first, to obtain a quick 1-0 lead in the top of the second, WSU quickly responded. With the bases loaded, freshman David VanVooren hit a two-run single to put the Shockers up 2-1. Senior Luke Ritter then just missed a three-run homer as he settled for a two-run double off the wall to increase the WSU lead to 4-1.
