Texas State took home a series sweep this weekend, clinching a 6-2 win on Saturday and a 7-2 win on Sunday against Appalachian State on the road. The Bobcats subsequently moved up to No. 10 in the country in D1Baseball.com’s national poll on Monday.
Sophomore starting pitcher Levi Wells tossed a complete game in Saturday’s victory — the first for the maroon and gold since former ace Zachary Leigh pulled off the feat 366 days earlier. Wells (4-1) allowed six hits, one HBP, no walks and just one earned run while striking out two in 96 pitches.
The right-hander’s performance on the mound helped Texas State take a 2-1 lead after the first inning. The visitors scored one run in each of the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth innings, taking the 6-2 win.
