"If you start thinking 'this is your night,' 'we're going to win from here on' or 'It's going to be easy the rest of the time,' you've already lost," Starling said. "If you don't keep focus, if you don't keep your edge, you've already lost."
The next inning, Zornes' home run gave the Owls the lead for good.
A&M got out to an early 2-0 lead in the third inning. Kevin Gonzalez hit a lead-off single off third baseman Diego Seastrunk's glove to get things started for the Aggies.
After Gonzalez advanced to second on a stolen base and to third on a wild pitch, Brodie Greene drew a walk. Colligan then smacked a double into left field to score Gonzalez. Two batters later, Greene came in on a fielder's choice to second base from Duran.
The Owls immediately struck back with two runs of their own in the fourth. With two runners on and one out, Hague pulled a double into the left field corner.
With the runners going on the 3-2 count, both came in to score and tie the game at two. One run was unearned as Diego Seastrunk reached on an error by first baseman Luke Anders.
Aggie starter Barret Loux cruised through the first few innings, including a five-pitch third. Despite the two runs in the fourth, he finished the day with two earned runs in six innings on six hits. He struck out one and walked one.
