TUCSON, Ariz. — The Arizona Wildcats (32-14) jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the bottom of the second and never looked back, topping the Nevada Wolf Pack (22-20) on a final score of 8-2 on Sunday afternoon at Hi Corbett Field.

Nik McClaughry (3-for-4) swatted a bases-loaded double as part of the Wildcats five-run second and Chase Davis (3-for-5) crushed a two-run home run in a three-run sixth to highlight Arizona's offensive outburst.

The Wildcats pitching was superb, holding Nevada to just two runs on only three hits while striking out five. Starting pitcher Anthony Susac (4-1) worked five innings and earned the win for his one-run, two-hit performance.
