The southpaw held UConn to just one run on six hits and two walks in 9.0 innings of work. He struck out six.

The 9.0 innings and complete game match a career-long outing for Cumbie as he tossed a complete-game shutout at then-No. 10 Louisiana on March 21.

Cumbie allowed just one extra base hit in a double and registered four innings of 1-2-3 action.

The win lifted Cumbie’s record to a 7-1 mark in 11 starts. He now enters the week, leading the pitching staff with an ERA of 2.41.
