Troy and FAU are squaring off in Boca Raton this weekend starting tonight. The battle looks to be Troy's pitching (3rd in the League) versus FAU's hitting (3rd in the League). Troy is attempting to keep itself in a position to claim the first place spot from ULM. FAU is coming off a big win at #1 Miami earlier this week and are hoping to sweep the Trojans to stake claim to second place. FAU is hot right now coming off the win at Miami and will showcase one of the leagues hottest players, William Block, and the leader in homeruns, Mike McKenna. Troy has their own players who are ready to show out against the Owls. Bryan Miller leads the league in doubles while Ryan Ellison is 5th in Strikeouts. An interesting stat shows Troy as the 3rd best pitching squad in the league with a 5.32 ERA yet no Troy pitcher is listed in the top 10 ERAs in the league. Troy needs this series to stay in target with ULM and to distance itself from FAU.
GO TROJANS!!!
Battle for Second Place
