MIAMI (March 19, 2022) – Behind an eight-run second inning outburst, the FIU baseball team ended an 11-game losing skid on Saturday night as the Panthers topped the visiting Marshall Thundering Herd by a score of 11-3 at FIU Baseball Stadium.
The dynamic outfield duo of Robert Sotolongo and Rey Hernandez led the Panther attack under a picturesque South Florida sky. Sotolongo and Hernandez each homered on the evening, while Sotolongo's was the Panthers' first grand slam since Seth Cannady's against the same Thundering Herd on April 17, 2021.
To add depth to the lineup, Matthew Gonzalez added two hits and scored once.
