Nashville, Tenn. -- Jacke Healey's two-run home run provided the Youngstown State baseball team with its only runs of the game as the Penguins fell 8-2 at Lipscomb on Wednesday.

The Penguins split the two-game series with the Bisons, having come from behind to win on Tuesday, 9-8.

Eric Marzec added three hits for YSU, and Joe Iacobucci reached in all four of his plate appearances. Corey Vukovic, Alex Frey and Bill Turosky combined to hold the Bisons without an earned run for the final four innings.

Tyler Wilson had three hits and scored three times for Lipscomb. Bisons head coach Jeff Forehand earned his 300th career victory.

LIpscomb did not trail in the contest after going ahead 2-0 in the first when Zach Messer drove in two runs on a single off starter Cody Dearth. Healey's two-run bomb with two outs in the third tied the score briefly, but the Bisons regained the lead with two runs on two hits and an error in the bottom half.

The Bisons then scored three times in the fourth and once in the sixth. Three of their eight runs were unearned as YSU committed four errors. The Penguins also stranded 13 runners.

Dearth took his second loss of the season, allowing five runs, four of which were earned, on five hits in three innings. Alex Ross earned his first win for Lipscomb as he did not allow a run in 4.2 innings of relief.

The Penguins will begin a three-game series with Walsh University on Friday at V.A. Memorial Stadium in Chillicothe, Ohio.
