GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas – In what would be the final game of the three-game road trip in Texas to open up the 2019 season, Hendrix plated five runs in the first four innings as that was more than enough to help freshman Bryce Delay pick up his first collegiate win. Hendrix defeated Mary-Hardin Baylor Sunday afternoon, 6-4, to pick up just the second win against UMHB in program history in four tries. The 2-1 start to the season is the best start for the Warriors since the 2015 season.

WHAT WAS SAID:
"I'm really proud of our guys," stated Head Man Sean McSheffery after picking up the second win of his young Warrior coaching career. "We had a great pitching performance from Delay and our bullpen did a great job shutting the door. Offensively, Dehne had big hits for us and Stoyanow's home run was a huge momentum shifter. Overall, it was a great team win."
