The D-III World Series was back underway as Whitworth and Christopher Newport resumed their contest with Whitworth leading 4-2 in the middle of the fifth inning. The Pirates brought their hot bats back and finished the game outscoring the Captains 3-0 to finish off the 7-2 victory.
Wheaton (Mass.) used a five run ninth to put the game out of reach and moved into the winners final with a 6-1 win over Cortland State. The Lyons will play the winner of the St. Thomas-Marietta game and Cortland drops into the elimination round with a game against Whitworth.
St. Thomas and Marietta played a classic. St. Thomas built a 3-1 lead through eight innings and survived a Pioneer rally to advance to the winners bracket final with Wheaton with the 3-1 win.
