WICHITA, Kan. – Wichita State banged out a season-high 16 hits and used a seven-run fourth inning to run-rule Tulane 18-8 in eight innings on Saturday afternoon at Eck Stadium.
Xavier Casserilla finished with two home runs and a career-high seven RBI, and three other Shockers recorded at least three hits on the day.
It was not a promising start to the day for the Shockers (18-32) who fell into a quick 5-0 hole. Tulane struck for four runs in the first inning against starter Adam Ketelsen, with Teo Banks delivering a two-out, two-run double to cap the scoring.
