The NM State Aggies fell to Lamar with a score of 11-5 in a game marked by a strong start from Lamar, who scored five runs in the first inning and three in the second. Despite a late surge from the Aggies, highlighted by Steve Solorzano’s two-RBI single, they were unable to fully close the gap. Pitcher Ferny Barreda struggled early on, allowing five runs before being relieved by Hazen Wright, who also struggled, giving up four runs. However, Chris Daniels and Jaden Davis helped keep the Aggies in the game by allowing just two runs over the final five innings. Offensively, Solorzano led the team with three hits and two RBIs, with support from Joey Craig and Camden Kaufman.
Some notable statistics from the game include the Aggies equaling their season high with 10 strikeouts, and multiple extra-base hits from Solorzano, Kaufman, and Craig.
