Brent Seifert led the way again as he had three hits, including a home run and two RBI.  Benton graduate Jake Kretzer and Jordan Guida both had two hits, a home run and three RBI, while Brock Chaffin and T.J. Dailey added three hits each.

Northwest Missouri State graduate Jayson Huett (2-0) earned the win as he allowed five hits and three runs in seven innings pitched.  He struck out seven and walked one.

The Mustangs continue their road trip Monday as they play at Joplin.  The first pitch is at 7:00 p.m.
