| Whitney Stars for Salukis in 8-3 Win | The South Illinois Salukis downed the Oklahoma Sooners, 8-3, at Field of the Shield. The Salukis were led by Devon Whitney, who captured player of the game honors. He was 2 for 2 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Josh York finished the game for South Illinois and earned his 1st save. The Salukis bumped their record to 10-7 with this latest triumph.
Whitney contributed a big hit, a 3-run home run, for South Illinois in the bottom of the second. With his team trailing 2-0, Whitney took a fastball from Nick Green and stroked the home run to right. His 3rd home run of the season allowed the Salukis to leap in front, 3-2.
