'Roo Baseball Rolls Past McMurry

ABILENE, Texas - The Austin College baseball team picked up its fourth straight win on Tuesday evening, topping McMurry University 10-3 to improve to 4-1 overall on the year.

Zack Mahoney belted a pair of homers and added a double while driving in four runs to lead the charge, with Justin Alphonse and Jake Webster also doubling and driving in a run apiece. The 'Roos got on the board in the top of the first with Mahoney's first home run of the game, and after McMurry squared things up in the second, Mahoney blasted a three-run homer in the third to make it a 4-1 game.
