COACH HALLOCK'S QUOTE
"Today's weather was a great day to hit. We have to take advantage of opportunities at the plate and on the mound that we create. It's an early gut check and I expect this team to respond heading into MAC play."

HOW IT HAPPENED, GAME 1
- Eastern Kentucky opened the scoring in the second inning with a home run to begin the bottom half. Later in the inning, a double scored a runner from second to put the Colonels up 2-0.
- EKU added to their tally in the fourth inning. A sacrifice fly with the bases loaded scored the first run before a three-run home run. Two at-bats later the Colonels sent another ball over the fence to bring the score to 8-0.
- Bowling Green got on the board in the top of the fifth. Jack Krause led off with a ground-rule double. Zack Horky walked and Nathan Archer had a bunt single to load the bases before a wild pitch allowed Krause to score from third, making it 8-1.
- The Colonels added four more in the bottom of the seventh. Back-to-back walks followed by a single brought in the first run. However, a three-run home run later in the inning pushed the score to 12-1.
- In the top of the ninth the Falcons saw a burst. Jared Johnson had a pinch-hit leadoff double to right field before moving to third on a ground ball. Anthony Toma, also pinch hitting, blasted his first home run of the season to left field, bringing the score to the 12-3 final.
