UTPB responded after falling behind in the top of the first 1-0 to come back and score the next four runs. David Fetkenher tied the game with a sac fly to right and drive in Jordan Zazulak. Alex Fernandez drove home Mike Fernandez on a base hit to right to give UTPB a 2-1 advantage. Chase Dillon added to the lead, walking with the bases loaded to score Alex Fernandez for a 3-1 advantage.

Fetkener added to the score in the third, driving home Jack Miller with a ground ball base hit into right for a 4-1 advantage.

But that was the full extent of the UTPB scoring on the day as Oklahoma Christian held the Falcons scoreless over the final six innings. The Eagles pulled within a run on a pair of RBI base hits in the fifth, and a two-run single in the seventh put OCU ahead for the second time on the day.

Alex Fernandez led UTPB with a 3-4 afternoon with a run and RBI as UTPB out-hit Oklahoma Christian 13-12, but struggled to piece together hits all afternoon with runners on base.

UTPB is on the road Tuesday afternoon, traveling to Plainview for a single game at Wayland Baptist.
