The Racers Fell to the Eagles 10-2 on Sunday Afternoon

Murray State (14-8) baseball dropped the series finale 10-2 to Morehead State on Sunday afternoon at Sonny Allen Field in Morehead, Kentucky. The Racers pieced together nine hits in the matchup but were unable to match the Eagles 10 run outburst.

Brennan McCullough led the Racers with a three-hit performance in the game. Outfielder Cade Sammons put together a strong day at the plate with two hits, an RBI, and a walk on the day. Sophomore Parker Estes drove a solo blast over the right-center field wall for his second home run of the season.

Seven Racer arms took the mound in the clash with Jordyn Naranjo putting together the longest outing of the day with 3.1 innings pitched while allowing just one Eagles hit.

The loss puts the Racers at 1-2 in OVC play to start the conference portion of the schedule. Murray State will be in action again on March 30 when they travel to Huntsville, Alabama to take on Alabama A&M in a midweek non-conference matchup before hosting Belmont next weekend.
