The game was anything but ordinary, as the Dawgs combined timely hitting, disciplined plate
appearances, and clutch relief pitching to notch their latest win. Offensively, it was a balanced
attack with contributions up and down the lineup. Nate Crowell (Reinhardt University) delivered
the most significant blow of the night, going 2-for-5 with 4 RBIs, including a three-run shot that
tied the game. Right behind him, Barry Eiseman (Reinhardt University) was a model of
consistency, posting a 3-for-4 performance with an RBI and keeping the Dawgs’ offence rolling
from the middle of the order.

while Jason Arriola (CSU-Pueblo) came up clutch with a run-scoring hit of his own.
