CEDARVILLE, Ohio - Micah Stewart's bases loaded walk in the bottom of the eighth inning capped the Yellow Jackets' come-from-behind 6-5 win over Lake Erie and a sweep of their G-MAC doubleheader.

Cedarville, 6-6 overall and 3-3 G-MAC, cruised in the opener, 13-2.

The host Jackets were all but dead in their last at bat of the seven-inning nightcap trailing 5-2. What's more, the first two batters were retired.

A single, a walk, and a hit batsman brought up Bryce Hughes, who ripped a three-run double down the right field line to tie it setting up the extra-inning heroics.

Daniel Sewak doubled in a run and winning pitcher Reid Hale, 2-0, tossed a scoreless eighth inning in relief.

In the opener, Cedarville made the most of eight hits, eight walks, four hit batters, and five Storm errors to roll to the big victory.

Payton Eeles was 3-for-4 with a double, two runs scored, two stolen bases, and three RBI. Hughes doubled in three runs while Austin Brown and Jacob Clements both tripled.

Winning pitcher Drew Minnich, 1-1, allowed two earned runs in six innings with seven strikeouts.
