Senior Johannes Haakenson (Janesville, Wis.) scored in the top of the third inning on a wild pitch.
The Blue and White benefitted from another homerun this time off the bat of senior Tristan Largent (Verona, Wis.) which drove in sophomore Josh Aguiniga (Chicago, Ill.) in the top of the fourth inning.
Aguiniga crossed the plate one more time on an error by the Scarlet Hawk second baseman.
