WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – The Drew University baseball team lost by a final of 5-0 at Lycoming College in its series finale with the Warriors on Sunday.
Â
Three Warriors combined on a three-hitter, including starter A.J. Llorente, who tossed 7 2/3 innings while allowing just three hits and one walk while striking out four.
Â
Lycoming (14-9, 6-2 LC) took the lead with one run on a pair of singles in the second, and it held up as enough offense. The Warriors went on the push across singles runs in the third, fifth, sixth, and seventh innings.
Â
Drew's best scoring opportunity came in the seventh, when freshman
Zach Maxwell worked a one-out walk before moving to third on a single from fifth-year
Anthony Hernandez. But that's when Llorente turned a 6-4-3 double play to escape the jam.
Â
Senior
Matt Colucci started on the mound for Drew and pitched 4 1/3 innings, striking out four while allowing three runs (two earned). Freshman
Nicholas Garbooshian worked the final 3 2/3, yielding two runs and striking out one.
Â
The Rangers continue their Landmark Conference schedule on Tuesday, when they visit Moravian University in a single game starting at 3:30 p.m.
