RUSTON, La. – Three Louisiana Tech pitchers combined to hold HBU to four hits and struck out 10 as the Bulldogs claimed a 6-0 victory to sweep the non-conference baseball series Sunday afternoon at J.C. Love Field at Pat Patterson Park.
 
Junior first baseman Brennen Bales went 2-for-4, while junior shortstop Diego Davila went 1-for-3 with a walk for the Huskies (6-11).
 
Junior righthander Will Ripoll (1-2) allowed six runs, only three earned, on four hits with two strikeouts and three walks in 3.1 innings. Senior lefty Austin Spinney pitched 2.2 shutout innings and junior Morris Austin and senior Andrew Reitmeyer each tossed a scoreless frame.
