PIEDMONT — The East Central University baseball team extended its win streak to five games after a dominant 13-2 victory over Southern Nazarene Sunday afternoon at Piedmont High School.

The game was originally scheduled to be played at Ken Turner Field in Ada but was moved to the turf field at Piedmont High School after rain soaked the area for most of the weekend.

The two teams attempted to continue their three-game Great American Conference series Monday afternoon back at Ken Turner Field.

The victory left East Central at 9-26 overall and 5-17 in the GAC, while dropped to an identical 9-26 overall and 3-19 in the conference.

ECU 13, SNU 2

The Tigers jumped out to leads of 6-0 and 8-1 and never looked back in the seven-inning contest. East Central pulled away with a five-run outburst in the bottom of the fifth frame.

ECU piled up 12 total hits in the contest, led by Weldon Sherrell who finished 3-for-4 with a triple, a double, two RBIs and three runs scored.

Seven of ECU’s hits went for extra bases.

Blake Seefelt and Christian Fernandez both had two hits each. Seefelt went 2-for-4 with a double, three RBIs and a run scored and Fernandez finished 2-for-4 and also cracked a double and knocked in three runs.

Tyler Akers, Jackson Presley and Ethan Rone also supplied doubles for the Tigers. Jackson — a freshman from Latta High School — finished 1-for-3 with two runs scored.

Zac Carroll, an Ada High School product, didn’t have an official at-bat. He walked twice, was hit by a pitch and scored three runs for East Central.

Southern Nazarene finished with six total hits, all singles. Aiden McCullough finished 2-for-3 and scored a run for SNU.

Luke Livian started on the mound for East Central. He struck out four, walked four and allowed one earned run in 5.1 innings. Ryan Dembroski finished the game for the Tigers. He struck out two and walked one in 1.2 scoreless innings of relief.
