Getting a conference road sweep is always hard to do, and the Tigers had to settle with a split in Jackson this past weekend. The weekend provided yet another opportunity for freshman LHP Ryan Lucero to show his talents as he went 4.2 innings in relief and 0 ER with 3 strikeouts. The middle of the order maintained their breakneck pace offensively, with 9 hits in 2 games from Felix, Jones, and Pappas. The Tigers return home Tuesday night against Cardinal Stritch at E.M. Stevens Field with Mike Panozzo taking the mound for the Tigers.

Walden Highlights Tiger Win

Chris Walden made the most out of his first start of the year, going 3-5 with a home run, double, 4 RBI's and 3 runs scored. The Tigers offense as a whole produced 18 runs on 14 hits, including home runs by Dylan Early, Kyle Felix, and Nick Pappas to go along with Walden's. The Tigers finish their series with DeSales Thursday at 5 pm @ E.M. Stevens Field before traveling to Jackson for a key SCAC match-up.

Tigers Set to Host DeSales Tuesday and Thursday

The Tigers have developed a great tradition of hosting teams from the East and Northern states in search of great weather and great baseball during their spring break seasons. This year is no different as DeSales University comes calling Tuesday and Thursday for their annual Texas swing through the heart of the Lone Star State. DeSales will take on Texas Lutheran in Seguin at 2 pm and then Trinity at 7 pm in San Antonio on Tuesday. They will also play Cardinal Stritch, (another team enjoying the Texas weather for the week) and Schreiner during their stay in SA. The Bulldogs present a great test for the Tigers in an out-of-region matchup of two great programs. Tune in for starting pitchers for the upcoming games.

Tigers Drop Wekend Series vs Warriors
