Slate Alford walked off the first game with an RBI groundout, and the third game with a RBI single in the bottom of the tenth. Alford has been one of the best hitters in the country to start the season.

Tre Phelps had the biggest hit of the weekend with a monster two-run homer that tied the game in game three against FGCU. The game was scheduled for just seven innings and Phelps tied it in the bottom of the seventh. Despite a slow start, the preseason All-American has raised his batting average to over .300.
