The Ashland University baseball team traveled to Columbus, Ohio on Apr. 7 for a Great Midwest Athletic Conference (G-MAC) matchup with the Ohio Dominican Panthers. In the game, Ashland got the job done by a final score of 11-1. Due to the run rule of a lead of 10 runs after seven innings, the Eagles walked it off in the top of the eighth inning scoring their 11th run.  

In the contest, the Eagles marched out 7 different pitchers. Freshman Ben Sibert was credited with the win, who now advances to 3-0 on the season. Sibert finished the day with two strikeouts, no walks, and no hits in his two innings pitched.  

From the plate in the outing, Ashland had 15 hits as a team, as 10 different Eagles combined to reach that mark. With only one hit on the game, redshirt freshman Drew Stevens led the way with runs batted in (RBI) with 3.  

Taking a look at the season, Ashland now advances to 21-11 overall, and 11-6 in the G-MAC. The Eagles will now look forward to their next weekend series when they go on the road to face off against the Findlay Oilers.
