Oklahoma City, Okla. -- Trey Sears drove in seven runs to power the St. Gregory's Cavaliers to a 15-7 win over the Mid-America Christian Evangels Friday afternoon  (Mar. 18) at Evangel Field.

Jacob Douglas put the Cavaliers on the board in the second with an RBI double, but Jon Jon Lemos answered that with a solo homer that tied the score in the bottom of the inning. 

After the Cavaliers jumped back on top with single runs in the third and fourth, Sears went to work and blasted a three-run homer in the fifth to suddenly give St. Gregory's a 6-1 lead. 

RBI singles by Luis Martinez and Jeff Eubank helped the Evangels get back into it with three runs of their own in the bottom of the fifth that made it 6-4. 

Sears then drove in his fourth and fifth runs of the game with an RBI single in the sixth to give the Cavaliers a six-run lead.

Martinez again kept the Evangels close by hitting a two-run homer in the bottom of the seventh that cut the lead to four runs. 

But the Cavaliers broke the game open with a five-run ninth inning for a nine-run lead. 

David Rhoads singled home Martinez in the bottom of the ninth for the Evangels' seventh tally. 

Chance Gilbert picked up the win for the Cavaliers by going seven innings and giving up six runs, four earned and striking out seven. 

Eubank and Martinez each had three hits for the Evangels. 

The rubber game between the two schools will be tomorrow afternoon (Mar. 19) at 1 p.m. in Shawnee, Okla.
