LAS CRUCES, N.M. - Monday morning, Rorik Maltrud was just another reliever in the NM State bullpen.
By the time 2:45 p.m. rolled around Sunday afternoon, the right-hander had finished presenting an exceptionally strong case as to why he should be included in the Aggies' rotation moving forward.
The sophomore out of Austin, Texas, fired six innings of shutout baseball, Zerek Saenz continued his scorching hot stretch at the plate by going 3-for-4 and the Aggies finished up a four-game sweep of WAC adversary Northern Colorado with a 7-4 victory at Presley Askew Field.
