The Beavers got a run back in the bottom of the inning with a walk and a pair of hits.
 
Mix and Johnson had back-to-back doubles with one down in the fifth to give the Pointers a 3-1 lead.  UWSP added an unearned run in the sixth.
 
The lead remained until the bottom of the seventh.  A one-out double sparked a four-run rally and a walk-off win for BVU.
