Collins Rips Purdue for 5 Hits
Alden Collins put on a hitting clinic today as the West Virginia Mountaineers dumped the Purdue Boilermakers 15-4 at Lambert Field.

The West Virginia second baseman made Purdue defenders earn their pay, lashing Purdue pitching for 5 hits in 5 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it."

"Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Collins said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."

Alden Collins walked in a run in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 6th, singled in the 8th and singled in the 9th.

This year Collins has hit at a .376 clip with 31 RBIs, 3 home runs and 29 runs scored.
