Reigning Landmark Conference Pitcher of the Week Kristopher Davis made his second start of the season and it was another impressive one.

The senior from Doylestown allowed seven hits and three runs while striking out six to earn the complete game victory.

Sean Jones, who was 3-for-4 and finished a home run shy of the cycle, opened the scoring with an RBI double that scored Holbert in the first inning.

Apprentice got a rally going in the top of the fourth. Singles from Mark Labrador and Christian Burton, and a walk by Lee Rossi loaded the bases for Ryan Hendrickson. The senior right fielder, who had a mere two at-bats last season, unloaded them with a three-run double to right that gave the Builders a 3-1 lead.

Elizabethtown has shown itself to be quite resilient early on and it needed to be Thursday. Following Apprentice's three-run fourth, the Blue Jays countered with three in their half of the inning to regain the lead, 4-3.

Jones led off with a single, moved to second on a passed ball and scored on Parke Martin's double to left. Frank Canuso recorded an RBI fielder's choice and later scored the go-ahead run.

The Blue Jays extended their lead to 6-3 in the sixth on Gatti's second two-run double of the afternoon.

Six different players contributed to the offense's nine hits in game two. Jones and Holbert (2-for-3) led the way with multi-hit peformances. Defensively, the Jays had a flawless day committing no errors.

Hendrickson and Buron paced the Builders' offense with two hits each.
