Austin Peay had taken a 4-1 lead in the top of the fourth on a run-scoring groundout by Conley and a two-run double by Houston Hebert.

The Governors got back within 7-4 in the seventh on an RBI double by John, but Millard’s eighth-inning single capped the scoring.

Reese Young (3.2 IP, 4 H, 3 ER, 4 K) earned the win in relief. Drew DeLucia started for Austin Peay but took the loss despite allowing no hits over four innings, charged with three earned runs.
