Wichita State totaled 11 hits for the day, led by two apiece from Trey Vickers (2-for-4, one run, two RBI), Noah Croft (2-for-4) and Jordan Boyer (2-for-3, two RBI).

The Shockers struck early with a two-run, two-hit, one-error bottom of the first inning. Dayton Dugas singled, stole second, advanced on a passed ball and scored on a throwing error for WSU's first run. Vickers followed two batters later with an RBI single through the right side to score Greyson Jenista.

Wichita State put up a three-spot in the third inning, helped by an RBI single through the right side by Sam Goodwin to plate Alec Bohm, as well as a two-out, two-run double to right center by Boyer to drive in Goodwin and Alex Jackson for a 5-0 lead.
