The Weevils took the lead in the bottom of the second, as Elijah Nichols brought in Logan Jones off a triple to center field. Beau Kuttenkuler brought in himself and Nichols on a two-run bomb to centerfield, another center field bomb off Kirk Woolf would plate Roc Hawthorne. A sacrifice ground out wrapped up the scoring for the Weevils as Camden Tanner rounded home.

Ouachita added runs in every inning between the third and sixth to take the lead back from the Weevils, 10-6.

Arkansas-Monticello cut the lead to just one in the sixth, as Hawthorne tripled to center field, plating Kyle Tolley and Nichols, Hawthorne himself came in as Woolf singled down the left field line.

Not going out quietly the Tigers crossed two more in the seventh, but the Weevils took the lead once more in their half of the inning as a bases-loaded Ouachita error cleared the field, and a Camden Tanner single through the right side made it 13-12.

Ouachita would take the lead once more and never let go adding runs in the eighth and ninth to take the game, 14-13, and the series, 3-0.
