Grand Canyon got down 16-2 in the first three innings and saw its baseball season crumble in an elimination loss to Sam Houston.

Grand Canyon had to wait nearly two hours to play its elimination game Friday at Mesa's Hohokam Stadium, as Sam Houston collected hit after hit and run after run in a 17-10 win over Abilene Christian.

The Lopes came into this tournament feeling pretty good. They had a Division I-era school-record 13-game winning streak. Gregg Wallis was named the WAC Coach of the Year, the first time a rookie head coach won that honor in the history of the conference award. Last year, GCU got to a Sunday, before being eliminated in a semifinal to suddenly hot Abilene Christian, which beat the Lopes twice. But that team got an at-large bid due to building a nice resume against solid non-conference teams. But that team got swept out of the Oklahoma State regional in Andy Stankiewicz's last season as head coach.

"We just had a bad weekend," said designated hitter Tyler Wilson, who went 4-for-4 in the 6-5 loss to UT Arlington on Thursday, and got two hits in his first two plate appearances Friday."Things didn't go our way.Catcher Walker Janek had an RBI double, a three-run home run and a two-run double in his first three plate appearances for Sam Houston, while No. 9 batter Jake Tatom had a single, a three-run triple and a two-run triple in his first three at-bats.

The Bearkats had 17 hits in the first five innings. But senior Hunter Omlid, GCU's fourth pitcher, who began the season injured, gave up only one hit and no runs over three innings to keep the Bearkats at bay, while GCU tried to scratch back in it.
