LOS ANGELES - The Loyola Marymount University Lions (18-29-1, 13-11 WCC) dropped the series finale on Sunday to Pepperdine, 6-1. The Lions scored one run, an eighth inning home run off the bat of Dylan Dennis.
 
Pepperdine scored twice in the second and added one in the third to take a 3-0 lead.
 
Neither team generated a run tween the fourth and seventh inning until the Waves put three on the board in the eighth inning.
 
Dennis' ball carried over the Blue Monster for LMU's lone run, a solo shot in the eighth inning.
 
The Lions earned a lead-off walk in the bottom of the ninth, but couldn't bring home the runner to start a late rally.

LMU will have one final home game before closing the regular season next weekend at BYU. The Lions host Dixie State on Tuesday in a game that will celebrate the senior class for all their contributions to the program. Prior to Tuesday's star, seniors Diego Barrera, Alex Burge, Ben Grunberg, Quinn Lavelle, and Matt Piotrowski will be recognized.
