Saints Back on Winning Track
The Saint Scholastica Saints Baseball Team got back in the win column on Friday, April 14th by taking the first two games of a three game UMAC series against the Presentation College Saints in Aberdeen, SD.
The Saints were led in the first game of the series by junior hurler Eric Hagen who carried a no-hitter into the 5th inning. Offensively, CSS was finally able to break through against the Presentation pitching with a five-run fifth inning that game Hagen a 6-0 and was more than enough for the Saints pitching staff to seal the win. After giving up just one run on one hit, a solo homerun, in the fifth, Hagen gave way to Joey Zanni and Adian Kummet who finished off the win giving up just one more run en route to a 7-2 victory for CSS. The win imporoved Hagen's record to 4-0 on the season.
