MIAMI – WKU fell in its series finale against FIU, 10-0, Saturday afternoon at FIU Baseball Stadium.
The Hilltopper pitching staff allowed just four earned runs while walking no batters, but five defensive miscues in the field helped the Panthers pull away.
"We'll have to clean a lot of stuff up," said head coach John Pawlowski. "We're not the club that we want to be at this point. This is not where we want to be or where we had envisioned. But, I told the team 'we have to understand that we have to make changes, everybody does.' They've got to be willing to accept where we are and learn from it and move forward."
The Hilltoppers utilized six different pitchers on the mound, with the group combining to surrender 10 runs (four earned) while striking out five batters and not allowing a walk.
On the weekend, the WKU pitching staff struck out 20 batters while recording just one walk in four games.
At the plate, the Hilltoppers tallied two hits and two walks, with Jackson Gray and Jack Wilson recording one hit apiece in the contest.
