No. 23 baseball completes sweep of Houston-Victoria

The Wolf Pack got three runs in the eighth inning to take the lead over the Jaguars and ultimately win the game

VICTORIA, Texas – The Loyola University New Orleans baseball team got some late-inning magic against Houston-Victoria, claiming the 5-4 win on Saturday to complete the three-game sweep. The Wolf Pack is now 13-6 overall after winning seven of their last eight games. 
 

The Pack will continue their play away from home next week, opening Southern States Athletic Conference play at Talladega College on Friday, March 3. 
 

Loyola got on the board first in the third inning with a pair of runs. Brandon Mooney was hit by a pitch with two outs, then Jake Mills singled to put two runners on base with Cole Romero at the plate. The sophomore transfer came through for the Pack, delivering a two-RBI double to center to give Loyola the lead. 
 

The Jaguars got a run in the fifth and two in the sixth to take the 3-2 lead, but Loyola scored three runs in the eighth to switch the lead back in its favor. Mills and Romero got things going with a single and a walk, then Anthony Fernandez made it a 4-3 Wolf Pack lead with a double to left field. Kason Cullins brought home Loyola's fifth run a few at-bats later with a groundout to plate Fernandez. 
 

UHV made things interesting in the ninth by scoring a run, but Matthew Weil left a base runner stranded to end the game. Weil pitched the final three innings to earn his second win of the season, allowing just one run on four hits with a strikeout. Nathan Monceaux started the game for the Wolf Pack and worked the first six innings, striking out a pair of UHV batters while allowing three runs on six hits.
