GAME ONE
Overview:
Belton, Texas-Mary Hardin-Baylor scratched across the game-winning run in the final inning to hand the Eagles a disappointing 1-0 setback in game one. With no outs, the Crusaders would record a sacrifice fly to push across the game-winner. It is the second time this week that the Eagles lost a game on a sacrifice fly. Mack Lucio had another strong outing but got the tough-luck loss. The Crusaders threatened on a couple of occasions, but Lucio and the Eagles' defense worked out of the jams. Rayli Ruby had two hits for the Eagles.
