In game two, sophomore right-hander Dustin Macke (Evansville, Indiana) (0-5) took the loss, allowing five hits, four runs (two earned) and two walks while striking out five in five-plus innings.
USI will try to get back on track Thursday, April 26, it hosts Oakland City University for a 2 p.m. single game to start the final four-game homestand of the season. The Eagles will resume Great Lakes Valley Conference action on Saturday and Sunday, April 28-29, when Bellarmine University comes to Evansville for a three-game series. Both days against Bellarmine will start at noon.
