MONTICELLO, Ark. -  The University of Arkansas at Monticello Boll Weevil baseball returns to Cleveland, Mississippi Tuesday evening for the third and final game of the season with the Statesmen of Delta State University. First pitch under the lights is set for 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday at Harvey Stadium at Ferriss Field. Each of two squads took a game this season, with DSU taking the first meeting, 18 -17 in February, with UAM taking the second, 9-8 (10 innings), in March. 

LAST MEETING
The Weevils took the mid-week meeting, 9-8 in 10 innings off a Caden Carney single shot to right field that plated Gabe Kuttenkuler. 10 innings prior, Delta State was first on the board in the top of the first off a groundout to shortstop that plated a run. The Boll Weevils found their first run in the bottom of the second off a DSU wild pitch that brought in Darcy Barry. One inning later, UAM made it a 4-1 ball game as Caden Carney produced a bases-clearing triple that plated Barry, Jackson Riedling, and Eli Marvin. Barry saw himself crossing home once more off another DSU wild pitch. The Statesmen tied the game at five in the top of the sixth off a three-run homer to right center and a sacrifice fly to centerfield. Delta State took the lead once more in the eighth, adding three runs on a bunt, a UAM error, and a wild pitch, making it 8-6. Headed to the bottom of the ninth, the Boll Weevils mounted a comeback, starting with a solo home run over the left field wall by Barry. Rielding would follow with a single to center that plated Elijah Olaybal and Camden Tanner to tie the game 8-8, forcing extra innings. After holding DSU blank in the top of the tenth, Gabe Kuttenkuler would single to reach first, and move to second off a sacrifice fly, bringing Caden Carney to the plate. Carney walked the game off for the Weevils with a single to right field, which plated Kuttenkuler to help UAM win 9-8.
