4/15/2025 10:16:00 PM | Baseball
NACOGDOCHES, Texas - The Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks (10-26, 2-16 SLC) won their midweek game against the Prairie View A&M Panthers (8-26, 4-8 SWAC) this evening, 9-6.
Neither team generated much offense in the first inning, but the Panthers got on the board first in the top of the second, scoring two runs to take a 2-0 lead. In the bottom of the third, the Lumberjacks got one back courtesy of Cermodrick Bland's second home run of the year, a solo shot over the left field wall. After three innings, the Panthers held a 2-1 lead.
Neither team scored in the fourth, but Prairie View A&M scored three runs in the fifth to extend their lead to 5-1. In the bottom half of the fifth, Cermodrick Bland drew a leadoff walk and then advanced to third on multiple wild pitches. After Josh Ibe walked and stole second, Mark Henning drove Bland in on an RBI groundout, cutting the Panther lead to 5-2.
After the Panthers scored another run to go up 6-2, the 'Jacks continued to fight back, scoring two runs on three walks and a hit by pitch to make the score 6-4.
In the seventh, the Lumberjacks took their first lead of the game. After three straight walks, Dante Turgeon would draw another base-on-balls, scoring Kevin Duran. Cooper Schneider followed with a sacrifice fly to right field, scoring Dalton Mullins. Cermodrick Bland then laid down a perfect bunt to first base, singling in Owen Hooper. After Josh Ibe drew his fourth walk of the game, Mark Henning drew the sixth walk of the inning for SFA, scoring Mathew Reinholtz, who pinch-ran for Turgeon. Finally, Julian Swift drove in Bland with a sacrifice fly to right, making the score 9-6 heading into the last two innings.
The Lumberjacks were able to hold the Panthers off the scoreboard for the next two innings, thanks to some great work by Reid Boyett. The final score would hold, and the 'Jacks were victorious over the Panthers, 9-6.
Hayden Tronson (1-5) recorded his first win while Leonardo Bravo (2-2) took the loss. Reid Boyett (1) recorded his first save for the Lumberjacks.
