Santa Barbara, CA—The UC Riverside Baseball Team concludes its 2016 regular season this week with a three-game Big West series at UC Santa Barbara. The Highlanders enter the week in a three-way tie for fifth in the conference, but only three games separate third from eighth place in the battle for an upper division finish.
The Highlanders could finish as high as third with a sweep of the Gauchos.

San Diego State took three of four from Air Force over the weekend, but are still just 17-34 overall and 12-18 in the Mountain West.
The Aztecs team ERA is 5.24, and teams are hitting .298/.363/.436 against them on the season. Offensively, just one San Diego State regular—Alan Trejo—is hitting better than .300. Justin Wylie leads the team with a .383 on base percentage, and Spencer Thornton is the top power threat on the squad with a .472 slugging percentage.
The Highlanders are 23-41-1 all-time against the Aztecs (view results), but UC Riverside upended San Diego State on March 22 of this year, 3-2 (box score/recap).
