Matt Lanzendorfer struck out two in the top of the ninth to earn the win.

MU continued to chip away with two more runs in the seventh.  Comins led off with a single, stole second and later scored on Kanwisher's sac fly.  Garrett McIlhenney's infield single drove in a run to get the Cougars within 10-7.

Maryniak singled to drive in a run and Kanwisher followed with another sac fly to make it 10-9.  Andrew Van Horn reached on a bunt single to plate the tying run.

Lanzendorfer struck out two in the ninth to offset a pair of walks to set the stage for the game-winning rally.
