  • The Beavers broke things open in the fifth inning scoring five runs on two hits and two Cardinal errors.
  • Jewell again responded, scoring seven runs of their own in the bottom of the frame, as Cameron Fliege doubled to score Alex Epp, followed by an RBI base hit off the bat of Nick Modrcin. A passed ball and two RBI single from Drew Reed scored three more to give the Cardinals their first lead, 7-6.

GAME TWO 
Jewell 18, St. Cloud State 14

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • St. Cloud struck first with a run in the bottom of the first but the Cardinals followed with eight in the top of the second inning. Smoot led off with a solo home run and was followed by an RBI walk by Quincy Aldrich, a Hansen two RBI double and a Fliege three run bomb.
