Madison’s gem lifts Jackrabbits past Bison 5‑4
FARGO, N.D. (Interstat) — Ty Madison pitched 7.2 innings of no-hit ball, allowing one earned run and striking out 10, as South Dakota State beat North Dakota State 5-4 on Saturday afternoon at Newman Outdoor Field.
The Jackrabbits (13-26) broke a 4-4 tie in the sixth inning when Nate Wachter singled home the go-ahead run. South Dakota State had taken the lead in the fifth on a single by Nolan Grawe, a single by Luke Franke and a single by Carter Taylor. The Bison (9-27) had jumped ahead 2-0 in the first on Chase Womack’s two-run single, then added runs in the second on Caleb Corbin’s RBI double and the third on a run-scoring single by Nolan Gustafson.
Madison’s performance followed a win last week against Northern Colorado. Parker Puetz threw 3.1 scoreless innings for North Dakota State, and Zak Szabo allowed one earned run in 3.1 innings. The series concludes Sunday.
