AVON, Ohio – In a game of back-and-forth energies, it was Dom Iero's one-out triple in the top of the 9th inning that sent fans in to a frenzy as Kent State (43-12) stayed atop the MAC Tournament winners bracket with a 3-2 victory over Toledo (19-37-1) Thursday night.
Locked in a 2-2 tie, Conner Simonetti led off the final frame with a single. After Tim DalPorto bunted him over, he scored easily on the Iero three-bagger for the game's deciding run. Zach Willeman was called upon to shut the door on the Rockets, and that he did.
