COLLEGEVILLE, Minn.—Bethel University's baseball team returned to Collegeville for a Sunday night doubleheader against Hamline University. The Royals (17-5, 4-2 MIAC) scored four runs in the top of the first inning of game one, but mustered just one run in the final 13 innings, which resulted in a split against Hamline University. The Pipers (10-12, 3-3 MIAC) went scoreless for the first 13 innings, but an unearned run in the bottom of the seventh in game two proved to be enough to win game two by a final score of 1-0.
 
BU's two starters were phenomenal Sunday evening. Carson Selin tossed a complete-game shutout in the opener, allowing six hits and one walk while striking out seven in 7.0 innings. Connor Malcolm allowed five hits and two walks, while striking out three in 6.1 innings pitched.
 
John Horner went 3-for-5 with two doubles, while Sam Horner finished 2-for-7 with one run. John Leach also collected a pair of hits along with one run and one RBI in the first game.
 
Bethel returns to Saint John's University Monday, where there'll face Macalester College at 2 and 4 p.m. The doubleheader will be the first between these two opponents since the Scots beat the Royals at SJU in the MIAC Championship game one year ago.
