The University of Central Arkansas Bears fell to the Northwestern State Demons in an 11-2 defeat at Brown-Stroud Field. The Demons outscored the Bears 11-2 after UCA took an early lead in the first inning. Despite efforts from UCA players like Zeb Allen, Bryce Cermenelli, and Casey Shipley, the Demons maintained the upper hand throughout the game. UCA’s Coleman MacRae and Perry Titlow put in solid pitching performances, but it wasn’t enough to slow down NSU’s offense. Nathan Negre and Bryce Cermenelli contributed to UCA’s nine hits on the day, but it wasn’t enough to secure the win.
The Bears are now gearing up for a home opener on Tuesday, though winter weather may impact the schedule. Following this game, UCA will face Eastern Michigan in a four-game series at Bear Stadium. The upcoming games include a doubleheader on Friday, a single game on Saturday, and the series finale on Sunday. UCA will be looking to bounce back from their recent loss and secure some wins in front of their home crowd.
While the loss to the Demons was disappointing, the Bears are focused on regrouping and coming back stronger in their upcoming games. Fans can expect an exciting matchup as UCA takes on Eastern Michigan in the upcoming series.
