An RBI double by Caleb Corbin down the left field line allowed Michael Mugan to score after his first inning double. A sacrifice fly by Cole Warehime gave SEMO a 4-0 lead.
A Ty Stauss RBI double and a bases loaded walk to Cameron put SEMO in front 6-0 after the first two innings.
Josh Cameron hit his first of two home runs in the fourth inning, a two-run shot to right field off SIUE's RHP Zeus Ponder to make it 8-0.
The Cougars recorded their first run in the sixth inning with an RBI double to left field off the bat of Gage Franck to score Lucas Spence.
Cameron's second home run of the game came in response of the one run for SIUE as Cameron blasted his fifth home run of the season to give SEMO a 9-1 lead.
Two SIUE runs in the seventh and then nine runs in the eighth gave the Cougars a 12-9 lead heading into the final inning.
The Cougars would plate another run in the ninth via a Redhawks error and the Cougars would hold on for a 13-9 lead.
