Box Score ROLLA, Mo. – Missouri S&T's baseball team took the upper hand in the weekend series with Rockhurst as Micah Dohlen (Kent, Wash./Kent Lake) fired a six-hit shutout to give the Miners a 1-0 win in the first game of Sunday's scheduled doubleheader.  The final game of the Great Lakes Valley Conference series was postponed due to impending weather and will be played at 3 p.m. Monday.

Dohlen allowed only three hits in the first five innings of the seven-inning contest and then pitched around leadoff hits in the sixth and seventh innings, as well as a hit and an error with two outs in the seventh.  He fanned six hitters – all on called third strikes – to record his first complete game and shutout of the year.

The Hawks got a runner to third in the opening inning, but Dohlen recorded his first strikeout by getting David Stober to end the frame.

S&T then got Dohlen the only run he would need in the third with a two-out rally that started with a hit by Tyler Bodenstab (Independence, Mo./Truman).  He proceeded to steal second and took third when the throw went into center field.  After Michael Lockett (O'Fallon, Mo./Timberland) worked a walk from Hawk starter Michael Lydon-Lorson, Lance Portwood (Edmond, Okla./Edmond Santa Fe) hit a 1-2 pitch between third and short to score Bodenstab.

Rockhurst (13-20, 11-10 GLVC) got its first two runners on base in the fourth but couldn't advance them any farther, then had a runner caught stealing to end the fifth.  Brett Marr led off the sixth with a hit, but Dohlen retired the next three hitters in order.

In the seventh, Seth Soto led off with a hit and wild pitch sent pinch-runner Patrick Burns to second.  After he was nearly picked off at second, Burns was thrown out by Luke Wetzler (Waterloo, Ill./Waterloo) as he tried to advance to third on a pitch in the dirt.

Dohlen allowed a two-out hit to pinch-hitter Blake Peterson and Caleb Baker reached on an error to keep the inning going, but Dohlen got Calin McCourt on a ground ball to shortstop Nick Ulrich (St. Louis, Mo./Vianney) for the final out.

Portwood and Ulrich had two hits apiece for the Miners (16-19, 10-11 GLVC), who had six in the game.
