With Seton Hall taking game one of their weekend series against Xavier, Creighton had an opportunity make up some ground in the standings if they could take care of business on their end beginning with Friday night’s doubleheader at Georgetown.
The Bluejays fell into a 3-1 hole after the first inning, but senior ace Mitch Ragan found his bearings and cruised through seven and a third innings to keep his team in the game and set the stage for junior second baseman Isaac Collins, who delivered a three-run triple with one out in the top of the ninth that he himself also scored thanks to a throwing error to crack open what was a tie game at the time.
