Bulls Drop Middle Game to Cougars

TAMPA, FLA., April 27, 2019 – The USF baseball team dropped the middle game to Houston Saturday, 7-1, forcing a rubber match Sunday afternoon.   
 
The Bulls (20-21, 3-11 The American) were behind early after the Cougars (26-17, 9-8 The American) plated two in the second. Houston doubled its lead in the fifth before USF got on the board in the bottom of the sixth. The Cougars scored the final three runs, capped by a two-run homer in the eighth, as their arms quieted the Bulls' bats.

About USF Baseball
The University of South Florida baseball team is one of the fastest rising programs in the country. The Bulls reached the NCAA Regionals in 2015 for the first time in 13 years and followed that success with a 42-19 record and second NCAA regional trip in three years in 2017. The Bulls continued the success under first-year head coach Billy Mohl in 2018, reaching 36 wins and advancing to the semifinals of the conference tournament for the first time since 2012, while being ranked in multiple polls for the final two months. USF earned its third NCAA Regional berth in the last four seasons and had six all-conference selections in 2018. The team had four players drafted in the 2018 MLB Draft, including the program's fourth first rounder, Shane McClanahan. Junior third baseman David Villar was taken in the 11th round after tallying 24 doubles and hitting better than .370, being named first team all-conference and an All-American. The USF Baseball program has won five conference titles and the Bulls have made 13 NCAA appearances.
