Holland finished the day six-for-nine with three runs scored and four runs batted in to lead a UNA offense that produced 24 runs on 25 hits over the two games.

He left the game with UNA holding an 8-3 advantage but the Hawks loaded the bases on reliever Kaleb Barnes and closer Channing Wall gave up a two-run single and sacrifice fly to make it 8-6 before finally ending the threat.

UNA took the lead with a six-run second inning that began with four straight singles and two walks before an out was recorded. Reid Homan and Holland drove in two runs each in the inning and Logan Carter and Ben Cooley also drove in runs.

The Lions made it 8-0 in the fourth on a Tate Mathis RBI-double and a walk to T.J. Lockett with the bases loaded.

Hubbuch's solo home run to lead off the third inning sparked another four run inning and UNA pushed its lead to 8-2. The Lions added two more in the fourth and six in the fifth for a final 16-3 score.
