MILLINGTON, Tenn. - Tournament host Rhodes College used a five-run fifth inning to break open a tight 1-1 pitcher's duel en route to an 11-1 seven-inning victory over Millsaps College and continued its quest for a Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference championship.

Rhodes took an early 1-0 lead in second inning on a squeeze bunt but the Majors responded in the top of the fourth when \#Josh Ordeneaux\# hit an RBI single scoring \#Jules Roussel\#.

The Lynx did their damage in the fifth inning thanks to a three-run double down the left field line by Chris Conkell starting a four-hit, five-run inning that effectively did in the Majors in an elimination game from USA Stadium.

Conkell finished the game 3-for-4 with two runs scored and his three run double. Other Lynx that contributed to the offensive outburst were Travis Perkins (3-for-4, one RBI), Brooks Royer (1-for-3, three RBI, one run) and Brandon Valentine (1-for-3, two runs).

The Majors could muster only three hits and one run in the contest after averaging just over 10 runs per game the rest of the season.

Rhodes was paced by freshman starting pitcher Jackson Baker who pitched a complete game in the win. He allowed just one earned run while scattering three hits and striking out four to improve to 4-2.

\#Wes Perkins\# took the loss for Millsaps allowing six runs (five earned) on eight hits in 4.1 innings of work.

With the win, the Lynx (26-15) earned the right to play DePauw (23-16) in the nightcap of day three of the SCAC tournament while the loss ended the Majors' hope of a SCAC title in 2010, as they finish with an overall record of 25-15.
