Comments from Head Coach Ed DenBeste: “This was a good test for our team.  I thought the team score was good.  Hoped for a little better but we got third behind two state winners last year.  Also good to see us beat Kuemper and Carroll on their home course.  Jake had putting struggle to start but had a great back nine.  Ben played well.  Wanted to finish with a par but came up one shot short.  Matt played a better round today.  Good to see him in 3rd spot.  Kyle was steady once again.  Zac and Nate had some good holes and some tough ones.  Good job finishing in top 3 by only 7 strokes.”

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Matt Carpenter hit a tiebreaking two-run homer in the ninth inning, lifting the St. Louis Cardinals to a 6-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday.

Aledmys Diaz sparked the winning rally with a leadoff single. After Jeremy Hazelbaker flied to deep left, Carpenter drove a 1-2 pitch from A.J. Schugel (0-1) over the wall in right for his fourth homer.

It was the Cardinals’ first win over the Pirates in five games this season.

Pittsburgh had tied the game on Starling Marte’s double off Trevor Rosenthal (1-1) with two out in the top of the ninth.

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Jung Ho Kang homered twice and Francisco Liriano continued his dominance at Busch Stadium as the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the St. Louis Cardinals 4-2 on Friday night.

Kang, who was activated from the disabled list before the game, ripped the first pitch he saw from Tyler Lyons into the right field bullpen for a two-run homer to give the Pirates a 3-0 lead in the sixth. Kang followed with a 427-foot homer into the upper deck in left in the eighth.

Liriano (3-1) improved to 4-0 with a 2.07 ERA in six career starts at Busch Stadium. Liriano fanned 10 through seven innings for his 24th career double-digit strikeout performance of his career.

Mark Melancon got his eighth save for Pittsburgh, who won its fifth straight road game and improved to 4-0 against the Cardinals this season.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – Former Omaha guard Tyler Bullock is returning to the Mavericks as an assistant coach. Head coach Derrin Hansen announced Friday that Bullock would join the staff after spending the last two seasons as an assistant at Southwestern Community College in Creston, Iowa.
