Missouri State swept their home opening series at Hammons Field Friday, Saturday and Sunday against the University of Central Arkansas to move to 10-1 on the season beating UCA 5-0, 5-3 and 4-0 in the three games.
Through the series, the recurring story was how much balance the Bears have.
“We’ve got speed, we’ve got power, we’ve got guys who can play defense, we’ve got pitching,” sophomore centerfielder Hunter Steinmetz said. “I think all around it’s the most balanced team we have had in awhile.”
Missouri State pitchers combined for a total 30 strikeouts through three games and the offense combined for 23 hits and 14 runs in the series.
