Wichita State launched six home runs in a game for the first time in 25 years and got six scoreless innings from the bullpen, knocking off Kansas State 10-4 April 18 at Tointon Family Stadium.

The win snaps an eight-game losing streak for the Shockers in Manhattan, giving WSU their first victory at Tointon Family Stadium since the 2012 season. The six round-trippers are the most for the Shockers in one game since April 26, 1998 against Indiana State.

A pair of freshmen lifted the 23rd ranked Wichita State to an extra inning win, 3-1, against third-ranked Oklahoma State on April 18 at Cowgirl Stadium.

Sami Hood hit the go-ahead two-run home run in the top of the eighth inning with two outs and Alex Aguilar held the potent Oklahoma State offense to just one run on eight hits.

Wichita State (37-8) completed the regular season sweep of the Cowgirls with Tuesday’s win in eight innings after earning an 8-7 win just two weeks ago in Wichita. It marks WSU’s highest ranked road win in school history, backing up the win against OSU at home.
