UTA baseball marks third-straight season victory over Texas Christian University

UTA baseball (10-19) defeated Texas Christian University (25-9) 6-4 in a Dallas-Fort Worth showdown Tuesday at Clay Gould Ballpark.

The win marks UTA’s third-straight season victory over Texas Christian University, also snapping the Horned Frogs’ six-game winning streak.

“I’m just happy for the guys,” head coach Mike Trapasso said. “If you just play clean baseball, it doesn’t matter who you’re playing, the scoreboard’s going to take care of itself eventually.”

Throughout the game, Trapasso rotated pitchers, a strategy that he said keeps arms fresh during the week and prevents burnout.
