PSAC-MEC Crossover, at Glenville State (Glenville, W.Va.)
Fri, March 1 vs. West Liberty: W, 10-9
The Bald Eagles trailed 9-6 heading into the bottom of the 9th inning. LHU then used three consecutive singles to load up the bases for
Liam McArthur (Basking Ridge, N.J./Seton Hall). McArthur delivered in the clutch with a bases-clearing double down the right field line to tie the ballgame up at 9-9.
After two walks loaded the bases once again, McArthur was able to score the game winning run on a wild pitch to give LHU the bigtime comeback victory and start the weekend off 1-0.

The Bald Eagles fell in the second and final game of the weekend, 7-3 to Fairmont State.
