The rain came, but it did not cause a delay.   Some wild throws.  Some wacky plays.  Two walks in the ninth – one with the bases loaded.  And, it was a win for the Peru State College (PSC) Bobcat baseball team on Thursday in the winner's bracket of the Heart of America Athletic Conference (HAAC) Post-season Baseball Tournament.
 
The Bobcats defeated Central Methodist University (CMU) when the 'Cats drew a bases-loaded walk with two outs in the bottom of the ninth to win 9-8 over the Eagles.  The win advances PSC further into the winner's bracket as they will take on Avila University this afternoon at Phil Welch Stadium in St. Joseph, Mo.
 
With a win, PSC advances to the championship game at noon on Saturday.
 
If the Bobcats would lose on today, they would have a consolation bracket game at 7 p.m.  Then, PSC would have to continue to win to advance further in the tourney.
Peru State is now 33-16 on the year while CMU fell to 23-21-1.
