The UTSA Roadrunners emerged on Sunday in a tie for first place in the American Conference baseball race.

Despite a 7-1 loss to the South Florida Bulls in a series finale on Saturday in San Antonio, the Roadrunners (25-11, 8-4) will move into the new week tied for first with the UAB Blazers.

The Blazers (23-13, 8-4) dropped a 10-2 decision to the Wichita State Shockers on Sunday in Birmingham.

Nolan Ganter slugged two home runs and produced four RBIs as the Shockers took two out of three in the series.

Since UTSA won two of three from South Florida, the Roadrunners picked up a game on the Blazers in the standings.

UTSA will play the Baylor Bears Tuesday night in Waco in a non-conference game before returning home to host the Charlotte 49ers on the weekend in the American.

The Charlotte series will run Friday through Sunday at Roadrunner Field.
