He made three relief appearances in the SEC Tournament (May 23-26), working 2.1 scoreless innings with one hit, one walk and two strikeouts.
Loer fired 2.0 scoreless relief innings at Alabama (May 12), allowing no hits with no walks and one strikeout. He earned a save versus UL Lafayette (March 2) in the Astros Foundation College Classic, working 2.1 innings and allowing one run on two hits with no walks and four strikeouts.
Loer was named earlier this month to the SEC First-Year Academic Honor Roll as a sport administration major.
