With the series split, the Rams move to 22-11 overall on the season and 21-11 in Lone Star Conference play. The Rams played well throughout this series, but stretches of shaky pitching from the Rams with LCU's high-octane offense caused Angelo State to fall in Games 2 and 4.
The Rams' Jacob Guerrero had an excellent outing in Game 4. He led the offense with four hits on five plate appearances, five RBIs, and two doubles on Sunday.
