INSIDE THE INNINGS
Following a DeBonville fielder's choice, Krumwiede put the Mavericks on the board with a single that scored his teammate in the bottom of the fourth. A pair of NDSU RBI put them ahead 2-1 in the top of the sixth, but Bonar responded in the bottom of the inning with a two-shot homer to right center that made it 3-2 Omaha.
 
NDSU doubled in the top of the seventh for two RBI, but the Mavericks were able to respond with two singles by Gamm and Bondarchuk, followed by a Bonar double in the bottom of the seventh.
 
Up 6-4 in the top of the ninth, NDSU was able to force extras on a single to left field for two RBI. The Mavericks saw runners in scoring position on four separate occasions, but it was not until the bottom of the 13th, where the team loaded the bases. Rogers then stepped up to the plate and after he faced a full-count, the last pitch went off center and plated Bondarchuk from third for the game-winner.
