Baseball: Lancers Fall To Dordt

Dordt Shuts Out Mount Marty in 3-0 Victory

SIOUX CENTER, Iowa – A dominant pitching performance and a clutch sixth inning lifted Dordt to a 3-0 victory over Mount Marty on Saturday. The Defenders (14-19, 3-8 GPAC) used a combined shutout from three pitchers and timely hitting to secure the win, while the Lancers (16-11, 5-6 GPAC) struggled to generate offense.

Eubanks Leads Strong Dordt Pitching Effort

Dordt starter Matthew Eubanks was nearly unhittable through 5.1 innings, allowing just two hits while striking out seven. Though he walked six batters, he worked his way out of trouble to keep the Lancers off the scoreboard.

Ty Neugebauer (1.0 IP, 1 H, 1 K) picked up the win in relief, while Drew De Vries recorded the final two outs to earn his third save of the season.

Scoreless Battle Until the Sixth

Both teams were locked in a pitcher's duel through five innings, with Mount Marty's Slayder Watterson matching Eubanks by keeping Dordt off the board. Watterson allowed three runs on seven hits over 5.1 innings, striking out four.

Dordt finally broke through in the sixth. Gabriel McFarland reached base and came around to score when Logan Templeton delivered an RBI double to left-center. Drew Oreskes followed with a double down the left field line, scoring Caleb Beard to make it 2-0. DJ Kerr capped off the rally with an RBI single to center, bringing home Cameron Grimes for a 3-0 lead.

Lancers Struggle at the Plate

Mount Marty was held to just three hits in the game, with Ryan Bachman, Shugo Kondo, and Jalen Owens providing the only offense. Despite drawing eight walks, the Lancers were unable to capitalize, grounding into a double play and leaving runners stranded.

Game Notes:

  • Dordt outhit Mount Marty 8-3, with Templeton, Oreskes, and Kerr each driving in a run.

  • Eubanks threw 105 pitches over 5.1 innings, showing resilience despite control issues.

  • Mount Marty's best scoring chance came in the fourth when they put two runners on, but Eubanks worked out of the jam with a strikeout.

The Lancers have now dropped back-to-back games after winning their previous three.
