CONWAY, Ark. – A big inning early was too much to overcome for Memphis as the Tigers dropped a 5-3 decision at Central Arkansas on Wednesday night at Bear Stadium.
A five-spot in the second inning by the home side built an early UCA lead. Memphis chipped away throughout the contest, but couldn't quite capture the momentum to yield a comeback.
Freshman Jaylen Wilbon posted his first multi-hit game of his career, going 2-for-4 at the dish with a run scored. Junior Ben Brooks also continued his hot start to the season with a solo homer, his second of the year, and collected two RBIs.
