LAS CRUCES, N.M. – A four-run lead was not enough for NM State on Sunday afternoon as the Aggies were tripped up by Seattle U. Leading 6-2 after four innings, NM State allowed seven unanswered runs to win the series finale, 9-6.
After Tyler Hoeft faced the minimum in the first inning, NM State opened the scoring in the bottom half. Keith Jones II led off the frame with a single before Mitch Namie ripped a single into center. With the Redhawk center fielder hot in pursuit, looking to make a play on Jones, the ball skipped past and allowed the Aggies' right fielder to score from first.
