Rollins Tars clinched a thrilling 9-7 victory over the Valdosta State Blazers on February 1, 2025, marking the first series win of the season. Mason Wilson emerged as the hero of the game, delivering a dramatic walk-off home run in the ninth inning that sealed the win for the Tars.

The game kicked off with Rollins taking an early 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning, thanks to Wilson`s powerful double down the right field line, driving in two runs. Joey Rubin contributed to the scoreboard with a home run in the third inning, while Wilson continued his impressive performance with a sacrifice fly, extending the Tars` lead to 4-0.

After Rollins starter Connor Hensley exited the game following the fourth inning, the Blazers began to rally, scoring their first runs in the top of the fifth. However, Corey Zientek`s two-run home run pushed Rollins` lead to 7-3. The Blazers fought back, tying the game in the seventh inning, but Bennett Durkin`s relief pitching held the score at 7-7 until Wilson`s decisive moment in the ninth. Durkin earned the win, striking out three batters in 2.2 innings, including a pivotal called third strike in the final inning.

In another matchup on the same day, the McPherson College Bulldogs split a doubleheader against RV Doane University and William Penn. The Bulldogs fell short in the first game, losing 5-4 despite a late comeback attempt. Levi Betts pitched five innings, allowing four runs while striking out four. In the second game, McPherson College bounced back with a thrilling 9-8 victory in extra innings, highlighted by Jared Kramp`s two home runs and a three-run shot from Jace Essig. Sussex-Uphold`s record-setting six hits propelled the Bulldogs to victory, with Jameson Caro delivering the game-winning RBI single in the 10th inning.
