Maddix Dalena had an RBI single and a two-run homer in the 13 batter inning while Korey Morton grabbed a pair of hits including a two-run single.Â
Caleb Shpur smacked an RBI single in the frame that extended his team-leading hit streak to 14 games and his on-base streak to 19 in a row.Â
After Garrett Coe pitched three innings with three unearned runs allowed, the UConn bullpen was superb.
