After being swept by Ohio Dominican in conference play’s opening weekend, the team continued to struggle in game one against the Storm.

SVSU committed five defensive errors in the 8-7 loss.
The Cardinals rebounded from there, taking the next three contests. In game two, after going down 1-0 in the bottom of the first, SVSU tallied five consecutive runs to win 5-1.
SVSU jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the third game of the series, but Lake Erie continued to chip away and tied the game at six in the bottom of the sixth. SVSU was able to answer back with the game-winning run in the top of the seventh.
SVSU also won the series finale, topping Lake Erie 13-7.
