Share on RSS

 

The quest to advance to this year's NAIA World Series came up short for Oklahoma Wesleyan University Eagles as Davenport, Michigan won the NAIA  Regional Championship game Friday afternoon 11-4.  The loss ends OKWU season with a 49-14 record.

It looked like the Eagles were going to win the game early as they led 4-0 going into the bottom of the fourth inning.  That would be the last time the Eagles would enjoy the lead as Davenport stormed back scoring four runs to tie the game at four a piece.  Davenport took the lead for good, scoring two runs in the sixth, two runs in the seventh, and three runs in the bottom of the eighth inning.  Davenport held OKWU scoreless in the top of the ninth to advance to the NAIA World Series.

Sam Hayes, in relief of starter Jeffery Deavenport, took the loss on the mound.  In one inning of work, Hayes gave up a run on two hits.  Hayes finishes the year with a 5-3 record.  At the plate, Will Price hit two doubles and 2 RBI's while Avery Flores and David Espinoza each got two hits.  As a team, Davenport out hit the Eagles 18-11.
