The Trojans jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the bottom of the 3rd, with Jon Grotelueschen's triple scoring Jeff Lindberg. Later in the frame, Debowey hit a two-out RBI double to bring home Colt Foerch for the three-run advantage.

Vavrusa held the Warriors without a hit until the top of the 4th, when Rochester rallied for three runs of their own. Three straight two-out singles, followed by a walk and an RBI double tied the game. Vavrusa settled back in during the 5th and 6th innings, and allowed just a single base hit outside of the Warriors' 4th-inning rally.

A fielding error with two outs and two on broke the tie for the Trojans, when Gomski scored in the bottom of the 5th. Debowey put Trinity ahead by two, scoring on a dropped third strike in the next at-bat. Haning then worked around a walk and a base hit in the top of the 7th to earn the save.

With the win, the Trojans improve their record to 9-6, matching their win total from last season before returning from the annual spring break trip.
