Wichita State 6, UND 1
WICHITA, Kan. -- Wichita State scored in each of the first four innings en route to its win against UND on Tuesday.
UND reliever Patrick Riewer threw four innings of one-hit baseball.
"WSU is a nice club; they threw some nice arms at us," UND coach Jeff Dodson said. "We had some opportunities today but they kept us off balance and pitched really well. That's how you win ball games. I thought we pitched well, too, as Tyler Ruemmele had his best outing of the year so far and Riewer pitched really well. Overall, it was good for our guys to compete against that kind of club."

WSU (10-5) loaded the bases in the bottom of the first inning with no outs but managed only one run as Ruemmele worked out of the jam. The Shockers would score a pair in each of the next two frames and got a solo homer in the fourth to stake themselves to a 6-0 advantage through four innings.
Kris Kwak had two of UND's three hits.
The teams play again today at 3 p.m.
