Travis Regalado (Willcox, Ariz.) capped a big sophomore season with two home runs as the Lakeland University baseball team pushed Concordia University Chicago to extra innings before falling 10-6 in its season finale Sunday.

The Muskies were defeated in 11 innings in the second game of a twinbill against the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference regular season champions and also dropped a 15-4 decision in seven innings in the first game. Lakeland concluded its season with an 11-26 overall record and finished 3-17 in NACC play.

Regalado hit a pair of two-run homers, his fifth and sixth round-trippers of the season. The first tied the game, and the second gave the Muskies a 5-3 lead in the fifth inning of the nightcap.

Regalado finished with three hits on the day and wrapped up his season batting .415 with team-high totals of six homers, 31 runs batted in, nine doubles, 56 hits and 25 runs scored, as well as a .615 slugging percentage and a .468 on base percentage.

Lakeland held the lead until the seventh, when Concordia (26-11 overall, 18-2 NACC) rallied with two runs to tie. The score then remained tied until the Cougars scored five times in the top of the 11th on the strength of five straight singles and seven hits in all, half of its total of 14 hits for the game. The Muskies could only get one run back when Jody Harrison (So.-Pontiac, Mich.) walked with two out and Bryan Bridges (So.-North Chicago, Ill.) doubled to score him from first.

Lakeland was done in by a pair of big innings in the first game, as a game that was close for three innings dissolved quickly. The Muskies had just tied the game in the bottom of the third after Regalado doubled and later scored on a double play when Concordia scored seven times in the fourth and then added five more runs in the fifth for a 13-1 lead.

The hosts tried to chip away, scoring twice in the fifth. Kenny Pekarek (Sagola, Mich.) was one of three seniors honored between games on the team's Senior Day, and he had three hits in the opener, including an RBI double in the fifth, and Brandon Punzel (Fr.-Escanaba, Mich.) also drove in a run with a ground out. The Cougars scored two more in the sixth, though, and Regalado's sacrifice fly in the bottom of the sixth to score Drew Richard (Jr.-Kieler, Wis.) ended the scoring.

Pekarek finished the day with four hits, with Richard also adding three hits. Sterling Dixon (Grayslake, Ill.) and Sam Martin (Milton, Wis.) joined Pekarek as the Muskies' three seniors honored, and both also had singles in the first game.

Mitch Wilson and Brendan Klein led Concordia with four hits each on the day, with Wilson driving in a total of seven runs and Klein finishing with four RBIs and four runs scored. The Cougars will be the top seed when the NACC begins its conference tournament Thursday in Mequon.
