"This is how we need to play and if we do, we'll be in a good position moving forward. Great weekend series to get and looking forward to the next one."

Arkansas State (7-11) squares off with Mississippi State in Starkville on Tuesday night before heading up to Memphis. The Red Wolves have lost six-straight games and are 0-4 on the road this season. They are led offensively by Brandon Hager (.385 BA, 1 HR, 3 2B, 15 RBI) and Kody Darcy (.299 BA, 2 HR, 10 2B, 24 RBI).
