Sam Houston State had a tough opener last week, but that didn’t get the Bearkats down. The Kats used remarkable performances from Hunter Pirtle and Dane Blackwood to capture both ends of a doubleheader against Lee College. The day started with Hunter Pirtle’s perfect game bid which got within 3 outs of becoming the unthinkable ended when Dane Blackwood went deep for a Grand Slam in extra innings.
