Bob did a great job covering the team’s chances last week and they stayed alive with a series win against Illinois capped by a four run 9th inning to stun the Illini in the rubber game, 8-7. Tom Marcinczyk tied it and then Christian Campbell had the walk off hit to bring RU all the way back from what was a 6-1 deficit and end their home slate on a high note.
The team has a makeup double-header at 3rd place Minnesota today and then will ride the bus to Evanston to finish the season at Northwestern with a crucial three game set.
