Harding Baseball Drops Two at Ouachita

ARKADELPHIA, Ark. – Harding baseball dropped a pair of games Saturday to Ouachita Baptist, falling 7-3 and 6-4.

The Bisons fell to 23-13 overall and 12-12 in the Great American Conference. At the end of play Saturday, Harding was tied with Southeastern Oklahoma for seventh place in the 12-team conference. The top eight teams reach the conference tournament at the end of the regular season.

Harding scored all three runs in the second inning of the opener. Cooper Newsom had an RBI single and Cody Smith drove in two with a double.

The Bisons led 3-1 at the time, but a four-run sixth inning from Ouachita was the difference in the game.

Davis Welch (4-4) struck out five over 5 1/3 innings. Dylan Penick pitched 2 2/3 innings of relief with three Ks.

Smith had two of Harding's five hits. His double was the 47th of his career, moving him into third on Harding's all-time list.

Harding had 11 hits in game two, including Seth Johnson's eighth home run of the year.

The Bisons fell behind 3-1 after one inning and had to play catch-up the rest of the way. Harding had the potential tying run at the plate in the top of the seventh, but Johnson's homer was the only run of the inning.

Coulton Doyle, Collin Helms and Drew McNeel had two hits each, and Logan Lacey had his team-leading 14th double. With a walk in the opener and two hits in game two, Doyle extended his on-base streak to 33 games. Helms has reached in 13 straight.

Will Roguske (3-3) went five innings and struck out six. Andrew Bradshaw pitched a scoreless sixth inning.

Harding is back in action Tuesday with a nonconference doubleheader against Lane. The Bisons are back on the road next weekend at Southeastern Oklahoma.
