Orediggers End Maverick Win Streak

Box Score

The Colorado Mesa University baseball team concluded its four-game series with the Colorado Mines Orediggers in Golden on Sunday. The Orediggers came out and scored five runs in the first inning and held on to a 7-5 win over Colorado Mesa. The loss ends the Mavericks 11 game win streak and drops them to 15-5 on the season and 9-1 in the RMAC while the Orediggers improve to 6-12 and 3-7 in RMAC games.

The Mavericks fought back after trailing 5-0 after the first inning but just couldnt climb all the way out of the hole. They were able to cut the lead to 7-5 in the ninth and had the tying run come to the plate but couldnt find a way on.
