Box Score February 12, 2012
 
MURFREESBORO – A bases clearing double by Mercyhurst's Ryan Seigel in the top of the ninth inning propelled the Lakers to a come-from-behind 7-5 victory over Chowan on Sunday.  Coming into the final inning, Chowan held a 5-3 advantage.  After the first three Mercyhurst batters of the inning reached base, Ethan Santora drew a walk to bring the score to 5-4.  Then Seigel crushed a double to deep right-center to give the Lakers a 7-5 lead.
 
Mercyhurst, ranked #18 nationally in the latest Collegiate Baseball poll, improves to 3-0 on the season.  Chowan falls to 3-6.
 
Chowan struck first in the home half of the second inning, when Colby Wiggins drove in Justin Bagbey with a single.  Wiggins went 2-3 at the plate and scored two runs.  In the fourth inning, Wiggins scored on a Josh Catalano single to put the Hawks ahead 2-0.
 
The Lakers bounced back with two runs in the fifth inning, and one more in the sixth, to go up 3-2.  Chowan's offense erupted, though, in the bottom of the sixth to score three runs.  A Brett Overton single scored Wiggins, and then Catalano followed with a two-RBI single.  Catalano finished with a team-high three RBI.
 
That 5-3 Chowan lead held until the ninth inning.
