In a non-conference test against a state-ranked Division 4 opponent, the Macks (6-7, 2-6 Western Cloverbelt Conference) started out well against the Dons (10-2, 6-0 Eastern Cloverbelt Conference), but twice surrendered the lead.
In a game plagued by throwing and fielding troubles on both sides, McDonell made more miscues and couldn't keep pace with Columbus at the plate.
Senior pitcher Eli Stepp struck out four for the Macks, while fellow senior Kaiden Boos led the team with three hits and drove in two.
