Owls Find Memphis a Blast
By Mark Anderson
If you considered the Owl offense MIA over this season, there’s good news: it showed up in force over the weekend. Don’t take my word for it—ask the Memphis Tigers, who lost their roar this weekend.
The Owls swept the Memphis Tigers this weekend by a total score of 48-17. Josh Rodriguez picked up where he left off in Waco, with Eddie Degerman picking up anther win and Cole St. Clair yet another save in the 7-3 win. Adam Zornes came with his bat packed. He came into the series with only one homerun and left Memphis with five homers. He hit the first of four homeruns over the weekend in Friday night’s win.
If anyone had any doubts about Rice being the number two team in the nation when they entered the stadium, they had none when they left. Rice scored twelve—that’s right, count ‘em, twelve—runs in the second inning in route to a seven inning 22-6 win. IN this game, Brian Friday led the way with four doubles, Zornes, Dodson, and Luna all homered. There was a total of 14 extra base hits—including four by Friday and three by Dodson (two doubles and a home run). Let’s not leave out the three sacrifice flies by Danny Lehmann here, either. Bobby Bell increased his record to 4-0 with the win.
Sunday was same song, second verse for the Owls as they broke out the bats again for a 19-8 win. The Owls had ten extra base hits in this game—four doubles and six home runs, led by Adam Zornes two homers. Craig Crow improved his record to 5-1 on the season by going five innings in the win.
The high-flying 32-8 Owls have one more stop to make on the way home—at Oklahoma—before returning for a three game series against Southern Miss and one game against Texas State University.
