Concordia grabbed an early 2-0 lead in the bottom of the third innings as a couple bloop singles found the right spot to go in front. In the fifth, Tayler Cullen put UJ on the board with a solo home run, and Quade Peters drove in Isaiah Roebuck to tie it at 2-2.

Jamestown and Concordia traded blows until the Bulldogs took a 6-3 lead heading into the seventh. The Jimmies would tie it up once again, scoring three runs off of three hits and one Concordia error. Tanner Shepard was able to tie the game with a two-run double that scored Peters and Kendall Yackley.

The score held at six until the bottom half of the 10th inning when the Bulldogs’ Jayden Adams delivered the game-winning RBI with two outs and two strikes.

Jamestown’s Hayden Brown was handed the loss despite striking out two in an inning and a third. Starter Trei Hough went four and two-thirds, allowing two earned runs and striking out four. Ben Ray didn’t allow a hit and retired all seven batters he faced in the middle innings. UJ had one error defensively.
