After being down 3-1, Norwich came back, tied it, took the lead, and held on to win 6-3.

In the five-run bottom of the sixth inning, Owen Olds led off with an infield single and Pierce Sherman came in to run for Olds and advanced to second on a single by Michael Brunick.

Brunick stole second and both Sherman and Brunick scored on a two-run, one out single by Leland Montgomery to tie the game at three.

Connor White had a sac-fly to bring in the go-ahead run while Zack Parker drove in a run on a two-out RBI single. Parker scored on Zac Turner’s RBI single to make it 6-3.
