Highlanders Fall to Gauchos in Season Finale

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Two Highlander home runs kept the Gauchos in reach, but UC Riverside dropped their season finale against University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), 6-3.

HOW IT HAPPENED 

  • The Gauchos struck first with two runs in the bottom of the first inning for an early lead. 
  • UC Riverside tied it up with a pair of runs in the fifth and sixth inning. Andrew Rivas drove in the first run with an RBI single, and Cole Koniarsky hit a solo shot over the fence to tie it up. 
  • A four-run seventh inning from the Gauchos pulled UCSB into a 6-2 lead. 
  • Zach Tallerman homered in the top of the ninth hoping to get something going for the Highlanders in the final frame, but UCSB ultimately secured the win.  

HIGHLANDER HIGHLIGHTS 

  • Tallerman was a perfect two for two with one run and one RBI from his home run. 
  • The Highlander pitching staff put up six scoreless frames against UCSB's nationally ranked offense. 

UP NEXT 

  • The Highlanders have concluded play for the 2024 season and will be back in 2025!
