INDIANAPOLIS – The University of Indianapolis baseball team lost their first game of the NCAA DII Midwest Regional II, dropping a one-sided affair to the seven-seeded Trevecca Nazarene Trojans. The Trojans scratched across runs in every inning minus two, outpacing the No. 2-seed Greyhounds 16-4.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
The Hounds faced G-MAC Pitcher of the Year in Caleb Marks and he was everything the Hounds expected, shutting down the Hounds through the first three innings of action. His offense rewarded the excellence, battering Diego Cardenas with four runs in the first three frames. However, after his first zero, the Hounds bats got hot, with Will Spear's RBI bunt starting what ended up being a four-run frame for the host school.
 
Despite the jolt of energy, the Hounds could not slow down the Trojans as they proceeded to tack on runs with big blows coming in the fifth and the eighth where a three-run homer and then a grand slam put the game out of reach.
 
UP NEXT
The season is on the line for the Hounds tomorrow in the first elimination game of the tournament. They will battle the six-seeded Grand Valley State Lakers at 11 a.m. at Greyhound Park.
