PLAINVIEW, Texas —
After dropping the first game of a doubleheader to Wayland Baptist, 6-3, Southern Nazarene responded a 12-6 win in the nightcap.
 
The Crimson Storm (17-25, 13-13 SAC) remained at .500 in the Sooner Athletic and have secured a bid to the Sooner Athletic Conference Tournament.
 
In the opener, Chance San Miguel put the Storm on the board in the top of the second with a single to center field to put SNU up 1-0 before a bases-loaded walk gave Southern Nazarene a 2-0 advantage. The Pioneers answered with two in the bottom half of the second to tie it through two.
 
The Pioneers climbed out to a 6-2 lead in the fourth with four. The Crimson Storm got one more back in the seventh when Nate Bidelman hit a pinch hit home run to right field to cut it to 6-3. Ryan McIntosh then ripped a two-double to left, but the Pioneers retired the final batter to score the win.
 
San Miguel went 3-for-3 with an RBI to lead the way for the Storm. Jake Bidelman took the loss to fall to 4-2.
 
Ryan McIntosh went 3-for-4 with an RBI and two runs scored while Nate Bidelman went 3-for-5 with a pair of RBIs and a run scored in the nightcap. Ryan Williams, James Tunnell and Jacob Inbody all went 2-for-4 with two RBIs and a run scored while Zach Friesen went 2-for-4 with two runs scored.
 
Zack Swart picked up the win to move to 4-4 on the year after giving up just three earned runs on five hits and he struck out a career-high 12 batters in just six innings of work. Mason Pinion threw the final inning as he gave up just one hit.
 
The Storm unloaded early with five run in the first inning and held a 6-2 lead through the third before Wayland closed the gap to 6-4 with two runs in the bottom of the fourth. SNU though put it away in the fifth with a six-run inning and gave up just two more runs the rest of the way.
 
The Storm totaled 17 hits on the day, just two short of tying a season-high.
 
Southern Nazarene will now close out the three-game series tomorrow at 12 p.m.
