Parker Olson’s run scoring triple to right drove in the game winning run in the thirteenth inning as Saint Scholastica defeated Aurora 8-4 in the NCAA III regional hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in Whitewater, Wisconsin.
 
Kyle Flagstad’s two run triple keyed a three-run third inning, staking Saint Scholastica to a 3-0 lead.  CSS added another tally in the fourth to make it 4-0.  Mike Foley got the Spartans on the board with a two-run triple in the bottom of the sixth to halve the deficit to 4-2, followed by a RBI single to close within 4-3.   Aurora’s Brett Van Asdlen singled in the tying run in the bottom of the seventh.   Flagstad tripled to lead off the twelfth, but  Aurora’s Thomas Rogers induced a ground ball that got Flagstad trying to score, and struck out two CSS batters to extend the game.  And then it was Olson time.  Kyle Jensen followed with a double to right to score Olson, and two more runs followed to put CSS up 8-4
