WOU starter Alex Roth allowed just two hits in seven shutout innings before being relieved in the top of the 8th.  

The Saints escaped the shut out with four runs in the 8th.

Poking a single through the left side of the infield, WOU's Spencer Bennion collected his second walk-off hit in a little over a week as the Wolves completed the Saturday sweep with a 6-5 win against Saint Martin's.

Nyles Nygaard and Connor McCord drew walks to lead off the 7th and put immediate pressure on the Saints. A foul out placed one out on the board before another walk, this time to Justin Wakem, loaded the bases for the Wolves.

Pouncing on a 2-1 pitch, Bennion lifted the game-winner past the SMU defense to usher Nygaard across the plate for the winnig score.
