Football scores are common on Sunday and Linfield and
Pomona-Pitzer wins looked more like gridiron scores than baseball
totals. Linfield defeated Texas-Dallas 22-10 and the Sagehens were
a safety better than Puget Sound in a 19-17 win. Jake Bruml homered twice in a 10 run third inning to
put Pomona Pitzer ahead for good and the Sagehens held on as the
Loggers scored the final nine runs to fall short of a comeback
win.
McMurry plated all 10 of its runs in the fourth through sixth innings to keep Lynchburg winless with a 10-1 victory in the Methodist Diamond Invitational. McMurray, who is reclassifying as a D-III school, earned their fourth win of the 2015 season.
Adam Duncan went 5-5 with three runs and an RBI to lead Ferrum to a 14-9 non-conference win over visiting Hampden-Sydney at Panther Field. Cliff Alexander pitched 1.1 innings of middle relief to get the win, and Alex Brown pitched the final 2.1 innings to earn the save.
Freshman Rick Spiers ripped a two-run double to spark a five-run seventh and give Randolph-Macon a 12-8 victory over St. Mary's at Hugh Stephens Field at Estes Park for a three-game series sweep.
Hunter Gallant went 3-for-6 with four RBIs, and freshman catcher Jack Brett blasted a two-run homer, to lead Willamette to a 12-6 victory over Claremont-Mudd-Scripps. Willamette swept the four-game series while scoring 36 runs and limiting CMS to 14 runs. In all four games, WU scored in one or both of the final two innings. It is Willamette's first 4-0 start since 2006.

Huntingdon wrapped up its first conference sweep of the season with a 13-5 win over North Carolina Wesleyan. Much like the first two games, Huntingdon built a solid lead early on. But unlike the first two games, the Hawks didn't let the Battling Bishops back in the game in the later innings.
