After falling to Sam Houston State University last Tuesday, the Cougars returned to action over the weekend for a three-game series against AAC foe Tulane.
The Cougars took 2-out-of-3 from the Green Wave, improving to 27-12 overall, and moving into tie for first place in the AAC. The series was highlighted by a thrilling performance by junior catcher Connor Wong on Sunday, hitting three home runs on seven total pitches.
With normal starter sophomore Trey Cumbie out with illness, sophomore right-hander Mitch Ullom got the start Friday night. In a long-scoring affair throughout, Ullom pitched well on short notice, giving up two runs on seven hits in 5 1/3 innings of work.
