Final

Worcester State: 10

Keene State: 6

How it Happened:

The Lancers found themselves down 1-0 in the bottom of the first, until senior Tyler Smith (Leominster, MA) hit a home run over the center field fence, which ran in first-year Christopher Mondesir (Roslindale, MA), who made it on base from a single giving the Lancers the lead 2-1 going into the second inning. The next runs would come in the bottom of the fourth with first-year Ben Domineck (Paxton, MA) getting a 2-RBI triple increasing the lead for the Lancers to 4-1 going into the fifth inning. First-year Riggs Catlin (Dedham, MA) would get a 1-RBI single in the bottom of the fifth, and following that, senior Anthony Iamarone (Providence, RI) would get a 1-RBI double to allow Catlin to run into home plate to increase the Lancers' lead to 6-1 going into the sixth inning. In the seventh inning, sophomore Ryan Jewett (Natick, MA) would get from third to home from a wild pitch, and shortly after that, Smith would get a 1-RBI single, increasing the lead to 8-2 going into the eighth inning. In the bottom of the eighth inning, Catlin would get a 2-RBI double, increasing the Lancers' lead to 10-3 going into the ninth inning. The Owls would attempt a ninth inning rally, but would only manage to get 3 runs, which would give the Lancers the win 10-6 in this afternoon's matchup.
