Stevens manufactured a run in the top of the second inning after junior Nick Sieber reached on an error and moved to second on an error. A groundout advanced him to third and he was brought home by an infield hit by senior Brian Hennelly. The Highlanders evened the score in the bottom of the fourth on an RBI single by Tage Johnson scored Trenton Unverdorben.

From then on, it was all Ducks as they scored the final seven runs of the contest, including three in the top of the fifth with two outs. After a pair of groundouts, junior Jonathan Toro reached on a walk and given home on a triple by senior Marc Calleo. Sophomore Zeph Walters drove in Toro on a fielder's choice, and junior Jayson Yano knocked in sophomore Nolan Bennett with a double down the right field line.

Stevens scratched a run across in the top of the sixth on an infield single and error, which was followed up with a three-run seventh inning. Toro led off with a triple and was plated by a Bennett single. Sieber drove in sophomore pinch runner Harrison Kaye, who had moved into scoring position with a stolen base and the scoring was ended on an ribbie double by sophomore Michael Mule'. 

Toro, Bennett and Calleo each had two hits while seven different players drove in runs. Freshman Alex Detweiler started and allowed two hits in four innings while allowing one unearned run. Sophomore Bret Viola tossed three shutout innings of relief punching out three Highlander hitters. 

Bryan Hodge had two hits for the home team while Unverdorben had reached on two walks. Seth Cornell threw six innings allowing five runs (one earned) while walking three and striking out four.

The Ducks are back on the road tomorrow when they travel to Rutgers-Camden for a 3 p.m. start.
