As the old saying goes, it’s not how you start... But how you finish. WSU baseball has taken that adage to heart.
At the start of last month, the Cougars were riding a 10-game skid and staring at a 9-17 record. I was looking like a slog to the finish line for the Cougs... But that’s when they turned things around. Since that point, WSU is 13-6 and have won five-in-a-row. That streak includes a series victory over USC — WSU’s first series win over the Trojans in nearly a decade. The Cougs followed up a series win over USC, with a series sweep over Utah Valley last weekend in Pullman, outscoring the Wolverines 29-10.
