Gonzalez walks off against Eagles to avoid series sweep, 10-9

Jose Gonzalez decided how to end one of the longest weeks of his life on his own terms.

With two outs and two runners on base in the bottom of the ninth, the junior outfielder drilled a line drive to right field for a walk-off RBI double, helping No. 10 Texas State take a 10-9 win over Georgia Southern.

“That was cool. He worked hard this week,” head coach Steven Trout said. “He made some changes with (volunteer assistant coach Jerry) Cervantez and he had a really good weekend and a different approach this weekend. And I think he's got some confidence rolling and when he gets rolling, it gets scary for (opponents).”
