The Mustangs answered right back in the bottom half of the first and never trailed again.

Ryan Richardson and Spiker Helms singled to start the inning and Brent Seifert and a two-RBI double to right field.

Kris Koerper gave the Mustangs insurance with a two-run home run to left field and Jake Kretzer had an RBI ground out.

Seifert and Richardson had two hits each to lead St. Joe.
