Box Score MANKATO, Minn. - The Bethany baseball team returned back to conference Friday with a visit from Northland College. The Vikings held a lead through four, but were unable to hold as they fell to the Lumberjacks 13-3.

Bethany trailed 2-0 going into the bottom of the fourth, but put a crooked number on the board to take a 3-2 advantage. With Adam Geiger on first, Tyler Hebrink singled. Trent Saharek sacrified them both into scoring position. Two batters later, Clay Anderson drove them in with a triple to center. Danny Kneeland then drove in Anderson with a single and Bethany had their lead.

The Lumberjacks scored six in the fifth though to retake advantage. They added one in the sixth and four more in the seventh to put an early end to the game.

The series continues Saturday with a doubleheader starting at noon.
