TROY, Ala.—A furious late-inning rally came up one-run short on Sunday for the University of Evansville baseball team, as the Purple Aces dropped the series finale at Troy by an 11-10 score at Riddle-Pace Field in Troy, Alabama.
"I thought that it was a great effort fighting back from our offense today," said UE head coach Wes Carroll. "We just didn't pitch well enough at times to secure a win against a talented Troy team. We just have to bounce back Tuesday at UK."
Troy jumped out to an early 1-0 lead in the first inning on a solo home run by third baseman Caleb Bartolero.
