Jimmy Songer, the 22-year old shortstop , had a direct impact on the outcome. Songer contributed a 2-run single in the top of the seventh inning to put West Virginia up, 2-0.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Porter.

The Black Bears raised their record to 27-25.
