UTA baseball shuts out Sam Houston State University in exhibition game

Fall baseball returned to UTA on Saturday, with Maverick fans getting a preview of this year’s roster as the team defeated Sam Houston State University 9-0 in a 15-inning exhibition game at Clay Gould Ballpark.

Redshirt senior pitcher Caden Noah pitches the ball during a game against Sam Houston State University on Oct. 19 at Clay Gould Ballpark. In his senior season, Noah struck out 54 batters across 54.2 innings pitched.

The team has spent countless hours in practice working to establish a defensive culture, which eliminates “the things that get you beat,” such as walks and errors, said head coach Mike Trapasso.
