Playing two conference games in doubleheader fashion, the Macks (4-3, 2-3 Western Cloverbelt Conference), came out of the gate strong against the Crickets (4-4, 2-1 WCC), run-ruling their opponent in six innings behind a complete game shutout pitching performance and strong two-out hitting.
In Game 2 it was Fall Creek's turn to start the game strong, and after seizing the lead in the bottom of the first they were able to hold off McDonell the rest of the way, earning the split.
Junior pitcher Cael Holm went the distance for the Macks in Game 1 in another very strong outing, while senior right fielder Grant Smiskey and sophomore third baseman Isaac Crawford each collected four hits over the course of the two contests.
