JACKSON -- Senior righthander Drew Maddox led the Majors to their sixth-straight win to open the season, recording his second win while only giving up two hits in five innings of work, as Millsaps defeated Huntingdon 13-10 on Wednesday afternoon at Twenty Field. 

Sophomore Tony Malaschak went 2-for-4, hitting his first home run of the season, while driving in four runs in addition to three other Majors with multiple RBIs. Malaschak also became the eighth Major this year to go yard.

After Huntingdon tied the game at 10-10 with a five-run fourth inning, the Majors rallied in the sixth inning to take the lead, scoring three runs off RBIs by Malaschak and Will Hawkins to take a 13-10 lead. That's eventually how the game would end after three scoreless innings.

Maddox was able to shut down the Hawks after entering to start the fifth, scattering two hits and four strikeouts before Tait Hendrix came in to record his first save of the year for the final out. Huntingdon's Brad Vest was hit with his first loss of the year, falling to 1-1.

Chad Green led the offensive attack for the Hawks, going 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in the third inning to left, while four players had multiple hits.

Millsaps moved to 6-0, its best start since 2002, whereas Huntingdon fell to 2-1.

The Majors will open conference play this weekend, hosting Hendrix College on Saturday and Sunday. First pitch for both games is 1 p.m.  Only Saturday's game will be broadcasted on the internet due to the final regular season basketball games.
