Let's take a look at how it happened.

WIN | Connor Nation (1-1) LOSS | Grant Adler (1-1) SAVE | Bryce Dolby (1)
Louisiana Tech scored five runs in the first, nine runs in the third, and sevens run in the fourth on its way to a 27-12 victory on Friday night.

Colton Coates also homered and drove in four runs in the victory.
Reid Snider came off the bench to hit the first home-run of his Bulldog career in the eighth inning.
