Iowa City — A four-run seventh inning propelled the University of Iowa baseball team to a 6-5 come-from-behind victory over St. Thomas on Monday afternoon at Duane Banks Field.
The win was the Hawkeyes’ second straight, moving the team’s record to 10-8 overall.
Senior Ben Beutel (1-0) earned the win – his first as a Hawkeye – after tossing 1 1/3 perfect innings with two strikeouts.
Six Iowa pitchers took the mound, fanning 13, while issuing just one walk.
The Hawkeyes are scheduled to host Grand View on Wednesday at 4:05 p.m. (CT), weather permitting.
Iowa will then welcome Central Michigan to Iowa City this weekend to wrap up their seven game homestand.
