Thanks mainly to a seven-run fifth inning the Mountain Lions held a 13-3 advantage going into the bottom of the ninth.
But the Jackets refused to quit and pushed across five runs before finally hitting into a game ending double-play.
Brandon Wright,
Cody Smith, and
Tyler Payne each drove in two runs for WVSU while
