the season. In that same inning, senior third baseman Alex Vitale
(3-for-5, five RBI, three runs) hit a three-run double to centerfield. Vitale
later added a two-run homerun in the sixth inning. Catcher Pete Callahan
(3-for-4, three RBI, two runs) also blasted a solo shot in the sixth and back-up

Ryan Bennick (4-0) pitched seven innings (no earned runs, seven
strikeouts) to earn the win. Wesley starting pitcher Ryan Buckland (3-2)
suffered the loss as he surrendered nine runs on nine hits in less then four
innings of work.
