Tolley Ties Single-Season Home Run Record as App State Claims Series Win

JONESBORO, Ark.Banks Tolley blasted two home runs, his third multi-homer game of the season, leading App State past Arkansas State 12-3 to clinch a series win on Saturday.

The two home runs give Tolley a league-leading 17 dingers on the season, tying Daniel Kassouf (2012) and CJ Boyd (2023) for the most in single season program history.

Tolley wasted no time getting the Mountaineers (22-14, 8-9) out to an early lead. After Drew Holderbach extended his on-base streak to 36 consecutive games with a one-out double in the first inning, Tolley followed with a two-run shot to left to give App State a 2-0 lead.
