Troy defeats App State in the opening round of the Sun Belt Tournament
Troy Baseball
The Troy Trojans took down App State 6-5 in the opening round the the Sun Belt Tournament. It was a come from behind win for the Trojans as Troy was down 4-0 through the first four innings. However, they were able to rally back in the fifth inning scoring 6 runs.
“This all felt very déjà vu of 2023 being the three seed with a 9 a.m. start against App State. Credit to Kermit and his crew. Their offense is terrifying, with a bunch of great players. You knew it was going to be a battle. Coach Ben Wolgamat challenged the batters before the fifth inning and Brooks responded with that homer to right center. From there, the offense got to work and allowed our pitchers in ‘Stew’ and Ross to take it from there. Ross took the reins and had an emotional eighth inning. Our team stayed composed and got the job done there in the eighth and Dill came in and was pretty nasty. Overall, a good day for the Trojans, but we still have work to do,” says head coach Skylar Meade.
The Trojans will face Southern Miss tomorrow at 4:00 at Riverwalk Stadium.
