The Rox did most of their damage in the second inning, pouring on eight runs to extend the early lead. Trevor Austin (Mercer) had the big swing of the inning, a bases-clearing double to drive in three more runs.

O'Neill Burgos (Southern) had a big day at the plate as well. The designated hitter had two hits and drove in three runs, including a late insurance run to help cushion the St. Cloud lead.

On the mound, Janzen Keisel (BYU) was solid in his second start of the season. Keisel allowed just two runs on four this while striking out four Honkers in his four innings on the bump.
