Senior third baseman Judd Utermark became Ole Miss baseball’s new home run king as the Rebels blew past UT Martin in seven innings, 17-6, Tuesday evening at Swayze Field.
Utermark’s first inning blast signified No. 49 of his career, officially surpassing Ole Miss (35-18) legend Kyle Gordon as the new program standard. Gordon held the record for just under 40 years, with other Rebel greats Tim Elko, Matt Smith and Matt Snyder each threatening in recent years, but it’s Utermark who took the crown.
Utermark finished the day 2-for-2 with three runs and two RBI.
