Summary
Troy moved within one win of its first College World Series berth by routing Little Rock 12-2 in Friday's Super Regional Game 1.
Jabe Boroff drove the surge with two home runs, including an eighth-inning grand slam, and accounted for half of Troy's runs.
Boroff's postseason tear has transformed the junior catcher from a .114 hitter with one homer on May 9 into a .270 hitter with 11 homers; he has six tournament home runs and 18 RBIs in six games.
The Trojans reached this spot after barely making the NCAA field and then eliminating Florida twice, earning the program's first Super Regional host role.
At Riddle-Pace Field, Troy also set attendance records, turning an underdog run into one of the tournament's standout stories.
