EAGLES LOOKING FOR FIRST CONFERENCE VICTORY

When the Urban Knights hosted Concordia in 2017, both sides split the four-game series with two wins each. Haloa Dudoit has swung the Eagles biggest bat thus far, posting a .294 batting average in his 51 at-bats (14 starts). Davis Tominaga has been CUI's biggest run producer however, compiling a team-leading, 13 RBI off of four home runs and three doubles for 31 total bases. Cade Temple has been the Eagles' ace to this point, producing a 2.19 ERA in his two starts and is the only member of the pitching staff to have tossed a complete game.
