AMARILLO, Texas - After a whirlwind of a night in games one and two for the Aggies they looked to repeat their success against the Bacone College Warriors in the final two games. Doing so with ease as they earned their first series sweep of the season. Beating the Warriors 19-5 in game three and 12-3 in game four. 

A much-needed series win for the Aggies to boost their confidence at the plate and on the mound. The bats would come alive once again, reaching double-digit hits in both games. Game one saw a much more concerted effort from the Aggie lineup as every Aggie that had an official at-bat had at least one hit. Posting their season-best team batting average of .560.

The second game of the day saw the Aggies' heavy hitters carry the team to victory. The top half of the lineup would account for eight hits, four runs, and four RBIs. Being able to capitalize on mistakes by the Warriors allowed the Aggies to make up for their shortcomings in the game. 

Head Coach Shawn Joy was proud of the way the team bounced back after a disappointing last few games. "Really happy for our guys and our program. We played well and had a lot of support from Aggie Nation".

Game 1

Looking to turn around their season and build off the previous night's wins, the Aggies come into game three against the Bacone College Warriors. A red-hot offense that would total nineteen runs on fourteen hits in game one. Run-ruling the Warriors in five innings.

Senior RHP Zeke Dougan (1-2) got the win in his fifth appearance of the season. Starting a little shaky on the mound but would settle down a couple innings in and finish his first complete game of the season. Allowing only four earned runs on six hits while striking out six. 

Panhandle State baseball has had its ups and downs at the plate so far this season but this weekend would not be a down one.  The Aggies would once again light up the Warrior pitching staff for double-digit runs and hits. The Aggies accumulated fifteen RBIs in the game. An unselfish approach at the plate has helped the Aggies get back on track heading back into conference play.

Every Aggie with an official at-bat would record a hit in the Aggies' 19-5 victory of the Warriors. However, Hunter Hutchinson and Manrique Mora would steal the show in the game. Both tied for the team lead with three RBIs each. Mora would flash some leather in the field to keep the Warriors from scoring and Hutchinson would launch his first home run of the year. Luis Dermas tied Panhandle States' program record for walks in a game with four against the Warriors. 

Game 2 

The Aggies would not be satisfied after securing the series win in game three. They intended to complete the sweep and gain momentum heading into their next set of games. Doing so by once again notching double-digit hits and runs in game four. Completing the four-game sweep of the Warriors and scoring 60 runs over the series. 

Senior RHP Josiah Roundtree (1-1) got the nod and the win in his seventh appearance of the season. Setting the season-high in strikeouts for the Aggies with nine. Making light work of the Warriors' hitters before making way for Corbin Yandell after six and a third innings of work. Yandell would finish the game for the Aggies with a quick strikeout and fly out from the Warriors. Going two-thirds of an inning without allowing a single base runner. 

The Aggie hitters continued their controlled aggression at the plate in the series finale. Forcing the Warriors to make plays and get them out. The Warriors would be the first in the game to score but the Aggies would not let that lead last for very long. Payton Brown would reach on an error in the bottom of the third to later score off the bat of Hutchinson for the Aggies to tie it up. Ethan Hunt would give the Aggies the lead with an RBI single in the same inning. 

Refusing to look back, the Aggie hitters would begin forcing the hand of the Warrior pitchers. Despite only having two extra-base hits in the game, the Aggies would have ten RBIs. Showing their much-improved discipline at the plate. 

Senior catcher Jonathan Applebury led the team with three hits in game four. Payton Brown would also make a welcomed resurgence into the lineup with a two-for-three performance at the plate with three RBIs.

Panhandle State baseball returns to the field Tuesday, March 15th in Alva, Oklahoma to take on the Northwestern Oklahoma State Rangers.
