GAME OVERVIEW

Maryville generated a run in the bottom of the sixth inning, but the Lions held on to the three-run lead after ending the inning on a double play.  Kolby Schulte extended the lead to 5-1 after bringing in Beckmann on a sacrifice fly.  The run proved to be important, as the Saints tied the game in the bottom of the inning with a four-run home run.  Lindenwood scored a pair of runs, including an RBI double by Jayce Maag that made it a 7-5 lead for Lindenwood.  Maryville again tied the game up in the bottom half of the inning, as the two teams were tied 7-7 after nine innings.
