Freshman third baseman Stephanie Heyward smacked a two-out, two-run triple in the first inning to help Cal Poly to a 2-1 victory on Sunday. Sophomore right-hander Sierra Hyland struck out five in a complete game performance in the circle.
The Mustangs and Aggies split Saturday’s doubleheader, as Cal Poly won 2-0 in the first game and UC Davis took the second 6-3.
Cal Poly will host Hawaii for a three-game series this weekend.
