The Cougars won the third annual Don Sanders Cup series against Sam Houston with a 12-7 win Tuesday night.
The offenses from both teams controlled the game from start to finish. After Sam Houston took an early 1-2 lead in the first inning, Houston’s offense exploded in the second inning for seven runs and would hold the lead for the rest of the game.
“Big night for our team to come up here on the road in a hostile environment and beat a really good opponent. Especially to win the Sanders Cup, Don has done so much for our team, our program and our University over the years,” said head coach Todd Whitting.
