SAN ANTONIO, Texas - In the final non-conference game of the regular season, the Concordia Texas baseball team was defeated by a score of 3-1 against 16th-ranked Trinity University. The Tornados' bullpen combined for eight strikeouts at Trinity Baseball Field on Tuesday.

The Tornados got off to a strong start when a RBI-single up the middle by Chris Morrow scored Julian Swift in the top of the first. The Tigers matched the run in the bottom of the frame, and claimed a 3-1 advantage in the fifth.
