Justin Quinn hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the 13th inning and the Oral Roberts Baseball team picked up its sixth straight series win with an 8-4 victory over North Dakota State in the rubber match Sunday afternoon from Doc Ross Field, in Council Bluffs, IA.

The series was played in Iowa, due to the unplayable condition of the field at NDSU, following a recent snow thaw. The 13-inning marathon marked the longest of the season for the Golden Eagles, who are now 2-1 in extra-inning contests this season.

ORU won game one of the series on Friday, 10-0 in eight innings, while NDSU took game two on Saturday, 4-2.

After Jake McMurray led off the 13th with a single, Quinn broke the 4-4 tie with a two-run blast to right. The long ball marked the second of the weekend for the senior and fifth of the campaign. On the ensuing pitch, Jonah Cox ripped a solo homer to left to push the ORU advantage to 7-4.

The back-to-back homers marked the first time the Golden Eagles accomplished the feat this season.

Later in the frame, Holden Breeze stretched the lead to 8-4 with a two-out RBI single to left that scored Matt Hogan, who reached on a walk. In the bottom half of the frame, Dalton Patten retired the side in order to pick up his first win as a Golden Eagle.

In the victory, the ORU bullpen was lights out as the trio of Jacob Widener, Cade Denton and Patten combined for eight scoreless frames and six strikeouts. The trio also held the Bison to only four hits in the eight innings.

Cox pushed his hitting streak to 24 games and finished a double shy of the cycle after going 3-for-6 at the dish. Breeze joined Cox with a three-hit performance as the redshirt junior went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a walk.
