In game one, LC (18-10) jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the bottom of the first, highlighted by Brad Smith’s two RBI double. Millsaps would make the score 4-2 in the top of the third on a two run home run by Jason Hadley. LC would answer back with two runs of their own, on a Brad Smith solo home run and a Matt Byrnes RBI single, in the bottom of the fourth. Millsaps would cut the lead to 6-5 in the top of the sixth, but LC blew things open with their seven run sixth inning. Ryan Reeves had a solo home run to lead off LC’s sixth and Brad Smith, who finished game one three for four with five RBI’s, had a two RBI double. Justin Morgan picked up his first collegiate win, going four innings and allowing two runs. Brandon Ingram (1-1) picked up the loss for Millsaps (22-15). Offensively Millsaps was led by Ben Wilson, who went two for three with a run scored.

In game two the roles were reversed as LC couldn’t figure out Millsaps starter, Todd Kindler. Kindler (7-1) went seven innings, allowed one hit, struck out three, and walked one. LC’s lone hit came in the top of the seventh when Brad Smith hit a soft-liner to left field with one out. Millsaps was led by Ryan Skertich, who finished three for three with four RBI’s, and Garner Wetzel and Hunter Abrams, who both had two RBI’s. Drew Hampton (0-3) took the loss for LC as he lasted only an inning and two-thirds and allowed five runs, all earned on six hits.

LC will be back in action Friday as they begin a three game series hosting East Texas Baptist University. LC and ETBU are tied for the ASC East Division lead with 11-4 records. Millsaps hosts Emory University over the weekend.
