Southwestern Assemblies of God University (SAGU) baseball had a challenging weekend series against Texas Wesleyan University (TWU). The doubleheader against TWU was pushed from Friday to Saturday to accommodate for the weather. In the first game of the doubleheader the Lions got off to a slow start which they couldn't bounce back from; they lost by a final score 16-7. The second matchup was more competitive, but the Lions weren't able to hold off TWU, as TWU won 7-6 off of a 9th inning walk-off run. The final game of the series was led by TWU, with a huge surge in the 4th-6th inning to seal the game 16-1. The Lions will be back in action this upcoming weekend, facing off against University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma.
