Farmingdale, N.Y. (5/11/12) – The #9/11 Kean University baseball team put up a ten-spot in the second inning on their way to topping Farmingdale State College, 12-3, Friday evening in the regular season finale for both schools.

Kean improves to 32-10 this season as they await the bracket for the NCAA regional tournament slated to begin on Wednesday, May 16.  Farmingdale falls to 29-10 as they too await the NCAA selections.

The Cougars sent 14 batters to the plate in the top of the second, tallying eight hits as they jumped out to a 10-0 lead.  Sophomore Nick Zucchero got things going with a sacrifice fly followed by a bunt single from senior D.J.
