Adelphi knocked off No. 1 ranked Pace, 6-2, to move past the single-elimination round and officially entered the Northeast-10 tournament this weekend.
The offense came to play today against Pace’s ace, Josh Garran, who entered the game with a 2.08 ERA but was tagged with five ER in 4.1 innings.
The big blow was Tyler Murphy‘s two-run double in the fifth inning, which scored Nick Zito and Kory Cassara, to open up a 5-1 lead.
Donato Signore, Cassara, Zito and Ray Triano all smacked two hits while Murphy and Triano drove in two runs. They also drew six walks.
T.J Santiago got the nod for the Panthers and he won his first game of the season–he allowed one ER on three hits and four walks while striking out four in 4.2 innings. Mike Ceparano, Nick Batas and Mike Cranston combined to throw 4.1 innings while allowing only one run.
The Panthers will play the winner of Stonehill and Southern New Hampshire on Thursday night with Jonathon Mulford on the hill looking to improve to 8-0.
