The West Virginia Black Bears faced a tough opponent in Connecticut pitcher Mike Jensen, but found a way to pull out the victory at Senator Thomas J. Dodd Memorial Stadium by a final score of 5-1 in 10 innings. Jensen went 7 innings and allowed no runs. West Virginia leads the Pinckney Division by 4 games.

Rodrigo Tovar came through with a big-time hit for West Virginia. The right fielder smacked a grand slam home run in the top of the tenth inning to give his team the lead, 5-1. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Our team showed some resilience," said Tovar.
