Smith finished 3-for-4 with two runs, while Kresser drove in two and scored once. On the mound, sophomore right-hander Chansen Cole struck out six over five strong frames, turning a 2-1 deficit over to the bullpen. Graduate reliever Reese Bassinger (4-2) earned the win with 1.2 scoreless innings, and junior Dawson Montesa slammed the door for his first save, stranding two in the ninth to cap WVU’s 39th victory of the season.
