The Aggies were ultimately doomed by 10 runners left on base, including three in the second inning when the Maroon & White loaded the bases with two outs, but couldn't push a run across.

Kendall Potts was saddled with the loss as the junior allowed three runs on three hits with a walk and two strikeouts. Payton McBride threw two innings of relief and gave up a run and a hit with two strikeouts.
