Sunday<\/p>\n

MAYVILLE, N.D.<\/a>— The Mayville State Universty Comets scored the go-ahead run in the fifth inning and held off the University of Jamestown 7-5 Sunday afternoon at Scott Berry Field.<\/p>\n

Jamestown, now 1-3 this season, travels to Valley City State on Tuesday to play the Vikings at 6:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

The Jimmies scored twice in their first at bat via a Kendall Yackley<\/a> (SO\/Lynnwood, WA) single and Matt Meraz<\/a> (SR\/Aurora, CO) sacrifice fly.<\/p>\n

Mayville State plated five runs in the bottom of the second, chasing Jimmie starter Cole Christensen<\/a> (SO\/Walnut Creek, CA) to take a 5-2 lead.<\/p>\n

Chase Hacker<\/a> (SR\/Millcreek, WA)’s fourth-inning RBI single made it 5-3, then UJ tied the game in the top of the fifth on a double steal and a Comet throwing error.<\/p>\n

The Comets retook the lead in the bottom of the fifth and added an insurance run in the bottom of the seventh to round out the scoring.<\/p>\n

Hacker finished 2-for-3 at the plate for UJ. Brian Rice<\/a> (JR\/Vancouver, WA), Grant Okawa<\/a> (SR\/Mississauga, ON), and Jared Bentley<\/a> (SR\/Washougal, WA) also had hits.<\/p>\n

Cameron Jenkins<\/a> (JR\/West Richland, WA) (0-1) was charged with the loss. Andy Reed<\/a> (SR\/Woodinville, WA), Austin Pesicka<\/a> (SR\/West Linn, OR), and Noah Soltero<\/a> (JR\/North Las Vegas, NV) combined to allow just one run over the final four innings, striking out three.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
