BB Dominates Fredonia

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. – The University of Hartford baseball team notched the second win of their Spring Break trip with an impressive 10-5 victory over Fredonia University on Monday afternoon at the Ripken Experience's Polo Grounds. 

The Hawks had their most productive inning in the eighth, scoring four runs. Freshman Jack Durland capitalized on an error to score, while sophomore Jackson Ciccone crossed the plate for the second time, courtesy of freshman James Hinspeter's second RBI. Freshman Alek Popovich and sophomore Jeremy Mangiameli contributed with runs scored in the inning.

Hartford got on the scoreboard early as Popovich brought home sophomore Cameron Boardman with a triple to left center field in the first inning. Freshman Jon Melarzcik scored on a wild pitch in the second inning.

Freshman Tyler Blumetti contributed to Hartford's strong start, allowing just one hit and two runs over the first three innings. The Blue Devils didn't record a single hit in scoring its third-inning runs. They took advantage of three walks, a hit batter, and an error.

The Blue Devils managed to tie the game with two runs in the top of the fourth. However, Hartford responded swiftly, with Ciccone driving in freshman Devin Bowen for Hartford's third run. 
Over the next three innings, Hartford added three more runs while Fredonia scored just one.
