Cratty and Soule Go Deep in Win Over Rockhurst

Bolivar, Mo. – The Bearcats won the final game of the 4-game series against Rockhurst with an 8-7 final score. This makes the Bearcats record 8-6 on the season.
 
Rockhurst struck first with a home run in the 2nd inning but the Bearcats responded in the bottom half of that inning when Jackson Soule hit a two-run bomb to right field to pull ahead. Rhys Cratty hit a three-run homer in the third inning to extend the lead. Sam Avila and Jackson Soule drove in two more runs that same inning to lead 7-1 through 3 innings. Zack Ehlen drove in Blake Lutgen in the 6th inning that would be the deciding factor that eventually won the game for the Bearcats. Jackson Soule and Rhys Cratty each hit a home run and drove in 3 runs in the win. Kyle Smith pitched 5.2 innings and struck out 8 in the start.
 
Southwest Baptist will travel to William Jewell for a 4-game series on April 1-3.
