The Case Western Reserve University Spartans dropped their second-straight game at the 2016 University Athletic Association Championships, falling 13-2 in seven innings to the Washington University (Mo.) Bears on Thursday afternoon in Sanford, Florida.
With the loss, the Spartans dropped to 6-6 overall and fell a game behind the Bears in the UAA standings with a 3-2 conference mark. Washington improved to 10-3 overall and to 4-1 in UAA play, and could clinch at least a share of the UAA Championship with a win over Emory on Friday and a CWRU loss.
Wash U. jumped on the board with a run in the first inning, but starter Liam Killingstad was able to get out of a one-out bases loaded jam by inducing a 4-6-3 double play.
