Another run-rule win for NSU

WICHITA, Kan. – For the second consecutive day, every batter had a hit as the RiverHawks torched Newman 16-5 in seven innings for a series win over the Jets. 

Northeastern State closes April 16-1 and has won six consecutive games.

In the second, Matt Kaiser hit his 19th home run of the season, and NSU never looked back, scoring six runs in the fourth and sixth inning. 

Blake Freeman homered in the fourth and scored three runs. Blaze Brothers hit a double and triple for a three-RBI afternoon. Kademon Graff cleared the bases with a triple and had three-RBI. 

Jonathan Smithey (6-2) threw 90 pitches and went into the seventh inning, striking out six.  He did not hit a Newman batter. 

The Jets scored all their runs in the final two innings and slipped to 23-28-1 (9-16 MIAA).

Northeastern State's win and a Pittsburg State loss clinched the RiverHawks the No. 2 seed in the upcoming  MIAA Tournament for the second consecutive year. 

The RiverHawks move to 34-13 on the year (22-10 MIAA) and will look for the series sweep Sunday at 1 p.m.
