MAHWAN, N.J. (March 22, 2016) -- The Drew University baseball team traveled and fell to No. 4 Ramapo College, 8-1, as Ramapo kept its undefeated record intact in non-conference play on Tuesday afternoon.
 
Freshman left fielder Jayson Mitch went 2-for-4 in the setback. Mitch is now batting .320 on the year for the Rangers (6-9). Freshman designated hitter Zach Lipshitz also went 2-for-4.
 
Impressed by what they saw in his first outing, Head Coach Brian Hirschberg sent out freshman righty Zach Luke for his second straight non-conference start. The freshman prospect is acclimating himself with the collegiate level. Luke matched zeroes with the starting pitcher opposite him until the third when Ramapo (13-0) started the scoring. A rally packed with singles and walks led to a 3-spot for the Roadrunners before Luke induced a 1-6-3 double play to stop the bleeding. Luke recovered after a rocky third to pitch a clean fourth.
 
After sophomore second baseman Anthony Feltre singled to start the sixth, junior right fielder Tommy Broyles scored him on a sacrifice fly. The RBI was Broyles' ninth on the year, ranking him second among the Rangers.
 
Drew managed five hits on the day and held Ramapo without an extra base hit.
 
Drew's next game comes on from Doc Young Field on Thursday, Mar. 24 at 3:30 p.m. as the Rangers face New Jersey City University.
