Nevada took an early 1-0 lead after two innings, but they blew it open in the fourth with four runs and added two more in the fifth and three runs in the sixth inning.
St. Joseph’s offense struggled again as they had just four hits, one night after getting only three hit in Saturday’s loss to Clarinda.
