Brandon Dinwiddie for two runs in the first inning, then added eight more runs against a pair of UTD relievers in the third before a succession of pitchers

UTD eventually rallied for a couple of runs in the 5th off starter Kody Thiebaud (4-0), who struck out seven before departing after six innings. The Comets got the two runs on a
Jake Eisman home run and a
Skyler Hoelscher RBI single. In the 9th, UTD added one more run when pinch-hitter
Kyle Guest singled, then scored on a ground out for the final run.
