Averett would scratch one back as Tanner Bradshaw left the yard in the home-half of the fourth. The Cougars would claim the lead with a Brandon Hatcher double down the left field line in the bottom of the fifth.
Matt Yarbrough knotted the game up in the seventh, bringing Grey Sherfey around to score.
