Spikes Pin 6-0 Loss on Connecticut
Left-hander Woodrow Ballard mesmerized the Connecticut Tigers while leading the State College Spikes to a 6-0 victory. Ballard picked up the win for State College, going 6 innings. He gave up no runs on 4 hits. He now sports a record of 2-1. The save went to Sterling Tucker, number 1 for him.

Ben Tiffany had a big run-scoring double for the Spikes in the bottom of the fifth inning. With State College leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from 21-year old right-handed pitcher Pedro Sarasa and swatted a double to left. It was his 3rd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Spikes ahead, 2-0.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Tiffany.

The win elevated the Spikes to 8-7.
