Tigers Get One-Run Win at State College
Connecticut right-hander Junior Taylor helped his team edge State College by the score of 3-2. Taylor kept the opposing lineup in check. Taylor, now 1-2, was the winner. In 6.1 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 5, walking 4, and allowing 2 runs. Yasunobu Hayagawa earned the save for Connecticut, his 10th.

Connecticut used the bat of Luis Aquino to get the win. The first baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Tigers ahead, 2-1. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"We found a way to get it done," Aquino said.

The win lifted the Connecticut record to 24-13.
