MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Chuck Ingram drove in a career-high six runs as part of a 14-hit attack, and Wichita State snapped an 11-game losing streak with a 14-6 win over Memphis on Saturday evening at FedExPark.

The Shockers (14-29) fell into an early 3-0 hole after a second inning home run from Ian Bibiloni and a sacrifice fly from Jacob Compton in the third, but flipped the script with a five-run top of the fourth inning. Garrett Kocis started the barrage with a towering solo home run off the scoreboard in right, cutting the lead to 3-1. Later in the inning with runners at second and third, Couper Cornblum hit a sharp bouncer down to third base that scored Andrew Stewart, who scored just ahead of the throw from third baseman Logan Kohler. Chuck Ingram followed by lofting a high fly ball down the right field line that tucked just inside the foul pole for a three-run homer, giving Wichita State a 5-3 lead.

The advantage proved to be short-lived, as Memphis (20-20) evened the score at 5-5 in the home half of the inning. With runners at second and third, Aaron Baskin hit a fly ball to center field that prompted both runners to tag. Ingram's throw to the plate was cut off by Xavier Casserilla, who then overthrew third base, allowing the second runner to come home with the tying run.

The game remained tied 5-5 until the sixth, when Ingram stepped to the plate with runners at first and second. He rammed a 3-2 pitch from reliever Jacob Gilmore (1-3) into the left field corner, scoring both Ross Cadena and Couper Cornblum for a 7-5 lead. Sawyre Thornhill added another run with a fielder's choice grounder, and Andrew Stewart rifled an RBI single to cap the scoring, giving the Shockers a 9-5 edge.

Cameron Bye (4-1) put together his best inning of the night in the sixth, setting down the side in order with a pair of strikeouts. He picked up the win, allowing five runs (four earned) over six innings with six strikeouts and three walks.

Ingram added his sixth RBI of the night with a seventh inning sacrifice fly, extending the lead to 10-5. The six runs driven in represent a new career high for the sophomore outfielder, who also set a personal best with three runs scored.

A wild pitch in the eighth inning scored Xavier Casserilla, stretching the Wichita State lead to 11-5. Memphis pulled a run back in the bottom of the inning on a two-out RBI single from Blake Daniels, but the Shockers put the game away with a three-run ninth. Jordan Rogers finished the scoring in the inning with a sacrifice fly, adding to his three-hit night. Stewart also singled in the frame, one of five times on base for the junior shortstop.

Connor Holden pitched around a leadoff double in the bottom of the frame, retiring the final three hitters he faced to secure the win.

The Shockers and Tigers conclude the series with the rubber match on Sunday at 1:00 pm.
