The UCF Knights battled against the Wichita State Shockers as the two teams split the first two games of their four-game weekend series during Friday’s doubleheader at John Euliano Park.
The Knights quickly found themselves trailing Wichita State in game one after Shockers sophomore second baseman Jack Sigrist tallied up two early scores.

Hopes of building on the momentum they had were quickly stalled as the Knights found themselves in a quick hole.
Owls sophomore B.J. Murray homered deep over far left-field with a man on base to bring FAU to an early 2-0 lead after only two at-bats to start things off for the night.
After a scoreless second inning, junior Josh Crouch homered deep over left field with a man on base to score a 2-run home run quickly bringing the Knights back in the game by the end of the third inning, now trailing just 3-2.
