The Basics
Score: MNU 4 - Central Methodist 8
Record: MNU (37-13) - CMU (42-5)
Location: US Baseball Park - Ozark, Mo.

OZARK, Mo. - The Pioneers lost their first game since March in an 8-4 defeat at the hands of #4 Central Methodist on Saturday. The Eagles jumped in front with a 3-run 2nd inning, but the Pioneers clawed back with single runs in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. CMU extended the lead to 6-3 in the 5th, and the Pioneers couldn't come all the way back. MNU recorded 10 hits in 6 innings vs. the Heart Pitcher of the Year, but a big rally never materialized and CMU avoided the big inning.

Turning Point
CMU's 2 runs in the 5th put CMU in front for good.

Individual Leaders
Adam Rellihan (2-4, R, 2B, BB), Daunte Freeman (3-5, R, RBI), Randy Fernandez (2-4, R, 2B), and Jacob Jenkins (3-3, RBI, SB, Sac) had multi-hit games.

Up Next
The next game is Monday at 11:00 vs. William Penn. The winner earns a spot in the tourney final and an automatic bid to Nationals.
