Arizona State Stars of Game

• Ky McGary - The center fielder reached base in all five trips to the plate. McGary collected three hits, walked twice, and also performed well as a fielder in another sign of Arizona State's true talent/depth.

• Landon Hairston - The LF/1B continues to be one of the more versatile players on the Arizona State roster this season, and is a prime example of what can come of a local high school prodigy staying in-state to play for ASU.

• Nu'u Contrades - The second baseman continues to possess one of the highest ceilings of any player on ASU's roster this season. The junior once again had a productive game with his bat, collecting two hits out of five trips to the place - knocking in an RBI as well.
