LE ROCK- The Trojans completed the comeback after trailing 6-0 after three innings to grab a 7-6 win over South Dakota State in the series-opening game Friday afternoon at Gary Hogan Field.
Josh Nowak blasted his first-career home run in his 2-for-4 performance that included two RBI and two runs scored. Riley Pittman had a perfect day at the plate, going 3-for-3 with a walk, while Garrett Scott had a three-hit day of his own. Ryan Benavidez continued his hot streak with a 2-for-4 day.
It was a rocky start for the hosts as the Jackrabbits put up six runs by the third inning.
