Box Score AUSTIN, Texas - Joe Pirozzolo went 5-for-5 and drove in three runs to lead a 21-hit attack in St. Edward's 19-0 victory over Panhandle State Saturday afternoon at Lucian-Hamilton Field. The win completed the three-game sweep of the Aggies and put the Hilltoppers two games ahead of UT-Permian Basin for second place with three games to play in the regular season.

St. Edward's (22-22, 16-11 HC) scored early and often, putting up runs in every inning. Through three innings, the Hilltoppers already had a 7-0 lead. Hilltoppers starting pitcher Jeff Rohrbach (Junior, Houston, Texas) only needed one of those runs as he went the distance, allowing just four hits and striking out five batters in 7.0 innings of work. He only needed 73 pitches to get 21 outs.

At the plate, Pirozzolo (Sophomore, The Woodlands, Texas) had three of his five hits go for infield singles, using his speed to go perfect at the plate, while also stealing two bases and scoring three runs. Taylor Johnson (Sophomore, Dripping Springs, Texas) also had a great game, going 4-for-5 with two RBI, three runs scored and two stolen bases. For the series, Johnson swiped six bags in the three games. Both Colin Elmore (Junior, Dallas, Texas) and Will McCaleb (Junior, Houston, Texas) had three hits and McCaleb led the team with four runs scored.

St. Edward's will be back in action this weekend when they host Texas A&M-International for a three-game series. The series will kick off Friday with a doubleheader beginning at 1 p.m. at Lucian-Hamilton Field. The series will conclude on Saturday with a single game at 1 p.m.
