“As the game progressed, our pitchers got into a groove and our hitters started to have more competitive at-bats, which allowed us to chip away at the 4-0 deficit and take the lead in the fourth inning,” APA coach John Tyler said.
Junior Braden Buress threw all five innings for the Rams while only giving up three hits with ten punchouts. Freshman Will Radford led the Rams with three RBIs on two hits.
