KOKOMO, Ind. -- The Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology baseball team had their season ended on Friday night with a 5-3 loss to Anderson. The Fightin' Engineers opened the tournament by beating Anderson 4-3 and beat Manchester 10-4 on Friday morning.

The Fightin' Engineers opened the game with two runs in the first inning thanks to a pair of RBI doubles by Andy Krajecki and Mason Rasmussen to lead 2-0.

Anderson tacked on an unearned run in the second on a Rose-Hulman error, and they tied the game in the third on a solo home run by Justin Reed. 

Rose-Hulman was able to lead the bases in the sixth inning and retook the lead on a Rasmussen RBI single. However, the Ravens would retire three straight batters to get out of the bases loaded jam.

The Ravens would tie the game once again in the eighth on a pair of Rose-Hulman errors. They misplayed a ball in the outfield, and with two outs, the Fightin' Engineers threw a ball away to bring the tying run home.

Anderson would get their bats going again in the eighth inning with a hit by pitch, three hits, and another Rose-Hulman error which led to three runs for a 6-3 victory.

Paul Durell kept the Fightin' Engineers in the game going seven innings pitched with just one earned run allowed in the first seven innings. Durell's previous career high was four innings pitched during his three-year career.

Rasmussen led the team with three hits in the loss. Rogers, Kade Kline, and Krajecki added two hits.
