DeKALB -- The baseball team ended their four-game losing streak this weekend, but still dropped two of three in a neutral location series with the Valparaiso Crusaders.
The Huskies split the Saturday doubleheader with Valparaiso before losing the series-deciding game 5-2 Sunday.
Head Coach Mike Kunigonis said mistakes were a deciding factor for the series and will be for NIU moving forward.
"We made the most mistakes [Sunday], and if you look at the whole weekend, whichever team made the most mistakes ended up losing the game," Kunigonis told NIU athletics in a March 17 release.
