In a game that West Virginia (18-12) (3-5) took control of early, sloppy defense and poor pitching out of the bullpen came back to bite the Mountaineers on Saturday afternoon as the Cowboys (19-10) (6-2) took the lead for good late.

Tevin Tucker and Austin Davis, both true freshmen, put WVU up 3-0 in the 2nd inning after each hit RBI singles and Tucker scored on a wild pitch to Tyler Doanes.

Kevin Brophy extended his team lead in RBI’s (24) on Saturday as he picked up 2 more on a home run to center field that put WVU up 5-0.
