Mountaineers Take Series From Kennesaw State
March 09, 2025 06:10 PM | Baseball
Â
Senior Brodie Kresser, one day after breaking his nose, was back in the lineup and went 3-for-5 with a home run, four RBI, three runs, and two stolen bases. Junior Sam White continued his torrid stretch with a pair of hits, including a home run, and three RBI. Senior Grant Hussey added two hits and two RBI.
Â
After the Owls scored three runs in the first, the Mountaineers responded with four runs in the bottom of the inning. White had the big hit, a three-run opposite field home run to even up the score before WVU recorded an out. Freshman Gavin Kelly put the Mountaineers on top a few batters later with an RBI triple.
Â
In the third, Kelly used his speed once again to score on a shallow sacrifice fly from redshirt junior Chase Swain. West Virginia tacked on four more runs in the fifth as Hussey, Kresser, and junior Logan Sauve all came through with two-out RBI base knocks.
Â
Kelly showed off his wheels again in the eighth inning as he scored on a straight steal of home. Swain collected an RBI single a few pitches later before Kresser delivered the big blow, a three-run home run, his second of the season.
Â
The Mountaineers will remain home for a midweek matchup with Towson on Tuesday with first pitch set for 2 p.m.
