Smith Stars for Starbursts in 9-7 Win
The Villanova Starbursts saddled the USC Travelers with a loss at USC Grounds. The final score was 9-7. Lonnie Smith was 4 for 5, including 3 singles and 1 home run. The Villanova designated hitter scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Chris Owen closed the game out for Villanova, earning his 17th save. USC has now lost 4 straight.

Villanova used a timely hit from Kent González to get the win. The shortstop stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Starbursts ahead, 8-6. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"We're in a little funk right now and we've just got to get ourselves out of it," said USC manager António Gómez.
