Rebels Topple BYU in Eight

LAS -- Angeline Quiocho broke the BYU single-season homerun record Friday, belting three round trippers in an extra inning 8-7 loss to UNLV.

Quiocho started the game with a conference-leading 22 homeruns, needing one to pass Jodi Norton, who hit 22 in 2007.

The record-breaking shot came in the top of the third with two runners on, giving BYU (39-11 overall, 10-3 MWC) a 3-1 lead, and Quiocho the record.

However, the Rebels (30-19 overall, 7-4 MWC) would not go away, in a back-and-forth conference battle that saw four lead changes. The Rebels took a 4-3 on a two-out single in the bottom of the fourth.

The lead was short-lived as Quiocho launched her second long ball in the fifth inning, with the Cougars trailing. Quiocho’s 23rd homerun of the season put her in first place for homeruns in a single season by a Cougar.

Quiocho recorded her sixth RBI of the night, and her third homerun of the game in the seventh inning. The blast tied the score at 7-7, and on the heels of a defensive stand in the bottom half of the frame, the Cougars sent the game into extra innings.

The Cougars had their chance in the top of the eighth. With the bases loaded senior first baseman Andrea Ramirez grounded out to end the top of the inning.

The deciding play of the contest came after the Rebels loaded the bases in the bottom of the eighth inning and a Cougar error allowed the winning run to cross the plate. The final game of the two-game series will be played tomorrow in Las Vegas at 2 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time.
