Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 Kearney, Neb. - Junior second baseman Scott Jameson delivered a two-out RBI single in the top of the 10th to help Nebraska-Kearney beat NW Missouri State, 5-4, in the second game of a double header Tuesday afternoon in Topeka, Kans.
 
Behind two homers from senior right fielder Brian Wuest and three scoreless innings from junior righty Scott Benton, UNK held off the Bearcats in game one, 10-6.

Due to weather, the games were played at Washburn University and moved up a day.
 
UNK (4-3, 4-1) held leads of 1-0 and 2-1 in the night cap but Northwest (1-7, 1-4) rallied each time and then moved ahead with single runs in the sixth and seventh innings.
 
Senior catcher Chandler Klute (3 for 4) led off the Loper eighth with a double to left, driving Bearcat starter Austin Warren (7.0 IP, five K's & three runs) from the game.

After a walk and a wild pitch moved Klute and pinch runner Zane Mapes (Lincoln SW) into scoring position, true freshman right fielder Anthony Pacheco (Kearney) hit a two-run single to right to tie the game at four.
 
In the tenth, sophomore SS Dillon Schroeder (Kearney) hit a one-out double to left center. A ground out and  walk preceded Jameson (Lovell, Wyo.), who smacked the game winner to left, his third hit in five at-bats.
 
Junior righty Dalton Cowen (Gillette, Wyo.) earned the win by blanking Northwest over the final three innings. Junior starter Drew Postgate (Greeley, Colo.) gave up just two earned runs in the first five innings.
 
A 2012 All-American, Wuest (2 for 4) helped UNK get out to a 8-1 lead in game one as he hit a three-run dinger in the first and then belted a two-run shot in the fourth.
 
Also at the plate, sophomore third baseman Danny Droll (Penrose, Colo.) had three hits, including a key two-run double in the seventh, and lead off hitter Max Ayoub (Grand Island) went 1 for 1 but drew a walk and was plunked three times.
 
Northwest made things interesting by scoring five in the fifth, including a three-run homer by DH Eric McGlauflin. But, Benton (Fremont, Calif.) came in and shut the door, allowing no hits to earn the save.

Senior Adams Peters (Lincoln) picked up the win, giving up a run in four full.
 
UNK stays on the road, playing three games this Friday and Saturday at Missouri Southern State.
