Prairie Wolves Win Series Over Simpson

INDIANOLA, Iowa – Nebraska Wesleyan scored five unanswered runs in the final two innings as the Prairie Wolves earned the series victory with a 6-3 win at Simpson College on Saturday afternoon (April 7) at McBride Field in Indianola, Iowa.
 
The Prairie Wolves improve to 6-16 overall and are now 2-9 in Iowa Conference baseball action.
 
Trailing 3-1 heading into the 8th Riley Ward led off the inning with a single.  A walk by Justus Stocks put two runners on and a Simpson error on Spencer Scheer's sacrifice attempt loaded the bases.  Derek Kolbush walked to bring in Ward, then Stocks scored on a balk to tie the game at 3-3.
 
With the game tied at 3-3, the Prairie Wolves got key hits in the top of the 9th to earn the victory.  Kolbush had the biggest hit with a two-run single to drive in two.  Scheer drove in the other run on a fielders choice bunt.
 
Jesse Maguire earned the victory on the mound pitching a complete game allowing just one earned run.  Maguire struck out eight and gave up only five hits in nine innings of work to improve to 3-4.
