Will Johnson single walks off NOC Enid in 12 innings

Will Johnson's 12th innning single chased home Jadan Boyce with the game winner as the #20 Mavs walked off #17 NOC Enid 3-2 in 12 innings in Game 1 of a doubleheader on Monday.

The win guaranteed at least a series split for the Mavs (36-4) and 8-3 in conference play.  NOC Enid (29-9) fell to 4-3 in league play.

Boyce reached base in the 12th on a hit-by-pitch to start the inning.

Mavs pitching allowed just two runs and eight hits over 12 innings.  While stater Aiden Hansen worked the first 5.1 innings, Evan Rolison worked 5.2 innings of hitless relief for the Mavs, striking out six and walking four.

Liam McKinney worked a scoreless 12th to earn the win.

NOC Tonkawa trailed 2-0 when the Mavs evened the score in the fifth.  Bodee Mausser doubled and scored on a Carson Taylor double.  Johnson then singled home Taylor to tie the game at 2-2.
