Knights Sweep SNU In Mid Week Action

Knights improved their record to 4-1 on the young season after a double header sweep of Southern Nazarene.


Northwood took game one by a score of 10-5. Senior, Jacob Overbay, earned the win in his first start of the year. Deric Hawkins and Austin Atwell both recorded two hits to lead the offensive attack. Hawkins also launched his first home run of the season.

Northwood took the second half of the twin bill 3-2 as the game was stopped after 5 innings due to daylight. Reliever, Bryan Kinard, earned his second win of the season after going 3 1/3 innings, allowing just 1 hit while striking out 5. First baseman, Adam Humes, came through with a two run single that gave the Knights the lead in the top of the 3rd inning.


Northwood is back in action Friday as they open conference play as Huston-Tillotson comes to town.
