APPLETON, Wis. -- The Lawrence University baseball team gave Monmouth College too many chances Friday in their winners' bracket game at the Midwest Conference Tournament, and the Scots turned it into a 12-7 win at Don Hawkins Field.
    Lawrence pitchers walked 10 batters and hit four more, and the defense committed five errors. 
    The Vikings will play an elimination game Saturday at 10 a.m. against Beloit College. Monmouth is in the championship game, which is set for 2 p.m. Saturday.
    The game was tied at 2-2 when Monmouth scored four times in the fourth, twice in the fifth and three more times in the sixth to pull away.
    Lawrence (21-18) pounded out 13 hits against the Scots but it wasn't enough. 
    Taylor Freeman went 4-for-4 with two solo home runs, a double, four runs scored and two runs batted in for the Vikings. Lawrence's Edan Perez went 2-for-4 with a homer and drove in two runs. Zach Leslie went 4-for-5 for Lawrence, and CJ Filipek hit a two-run homer for the Vikings in the seventh inning.
