Hobart College 8 vs. Keuka College 4

The Wolves took the lead first on Wednesday as Tyler Lewandowski led off the third inning with a double into the left field corner. He moved to third on a sacrifice bunt by Shane Daley (Elma, N.Y. / Iroquois) and scored on a sacrifice fly by Josh Tryon (Elmira, N.Y. / Thomas A. Edison).

Keuka College added to their lead an inning later. RJ Murphy (Syracuse, N.Y. / West Genesee) led off with a walk and later moved to second on a single by Donald Nemeth (Guilderland, N.Y. / Guilderland). They both would score on Samuel O'Neil's (Macedon, N.Y. / Ruben A. Cirillo) first career triple to give the Wolves a 3-0 advantage.

Hobart answered back in the bottom of the inning as they took advantage of two Keuka errors and three free passes to first to score five runs and take the lead.

The score would remain until the eighth inning. RJ Murphy led off with a single. Keuka would load the bases with one out. Samuel O'Neil worked a bases-loaded walk to score a run and cut the margin to one. However, Hobart would get the next two batters to strike out to retain the lead. The Statesmen would add three insurance runs in the bottom of the inning and continue onto the 8-4 victory.
