ROSE HILL, Kan. – On Sunday, the Jets would host Illinois-Springfield for games two and three of the weekend series.  Newman would win the first game 9-6 and drop the second game 3-2, losing the series 2-1. 

In the first game, Newman would strike first in the bottom of the second inning when Hayden VanDePol would hit a double to off of the centerfield wall that drove in two runs.  In the third inning, Illinois-Springfield would cut the deficit to 2-1.  In the bottom half of the third, Newman would extend the lead as Mitchell Austin would double to centerfield driving two more runs to give the Jets a 4-1 lead.  Newman would score again when VanDePol homered to leftfield to extend the Jets lead to four, 5-1.
 
Illinois-Springfield would tie the game in the top of the 7th inning with a grand slam. Newman would respond as they would score two in the bottom half of the frame to take the lead back 7-5. The Jets would score two more in the bottom of the eighth with on a solo home run by Devin Beard and a base loaded walk, making the score 9-5. Illinois-Springfield would score one in the top of the 9th, but the Jets would hold on for the 9-6 win.

In the second game of the doubleheader, the Jets defense struggled to start the game as they committed three errors in the first three batters.

Newman would respond as Devin Beard would hit his second solo homerun of the day, a pitch after Tyler Push would be caught stealing, to cut the deficit to 3-1.  The game remained 3-1 until the bottom of the sixth inning when Will Jordan got an RBI single to right field that scored Aaron Eshelman and cut the Prairie Star lead to 3-2. With the same score in the bottom of the seventh inning and the Jets threatening with runners on first and second, Zack Hargrove and Daniel Blake would both strikeout on controversial strike three calls as Illinois Springfield would hold on for the 3-2 win over the Jets.
