Bulls Avoid Wweep, Beat WVU in 12 Innings to Close Out Regular Season

The Bulls needed 12 innings, but were able to close out the regular season with a strong win against WVU 5 to 4, ending the season with a win as they head to Clearwater for the Big East tournament (team ends the year at 34-20  and 17-10 in conference play). 

Matt Reed got the start for the Bulls and worked 7 strong innings, allowing 7 hits, 4 runs, 3 walks, and struck out 2 batters.  Austin Adams replaced him and went 3 innings, allowing 1  walk and fanned 2 batters.  Steven Leasure went 2 innings after him and allowed just 1 hit and closed out the game with a 1-2-3 inning in the 12th. 

The offense continued to swing the hot bat in this game.  Alex Mendez went 2 for 6 with a run scored.  James Ramsay went 2 for 6 with a double.  Blake Sydeski went 3 for 6 with a double and drove in one run.  Luis Llerena went 2 for 6.  Anthony Diaz was 1 for 4 and drove in 2 runs. 

This is a strong win for the team after dropping the first two games of the series and a great way to end the regular season with a win.  The Bulls will now return to Florida and head across the bay to take on the Big East tournament as they look to make some noise there and keep the season alive.
