 Brent
Gaphardt Throws No-Hitter as Delaware
Baseball Sweeps Conference Opening
Doubleheader Versus
Hofstra
NEWARK,
DE (March 26, 2005)-- Junior
left-handed pitcher Brent Gaphardt (Bel
Air, MD/Dundalk-at right) threw a
no-hitter and struck out three sides of a
seven-inning contest for the University of
Delaware baseball team, who swept a
conference opening doubleheader with
Hofstra Saturday afternoon at Bob Hannah
Stadium.
Gaphardt's
first career no-hitter came in the second
game and was the Hens first no-hitter in
the Colonial Athletic Association and
their first conference no-hitter since
Matt Phillips shut down Hofstra on March
28, 1997. It was Delaware's eighth overall
and their first at home since 1983 against
Villanova. The Hens last no-hit contest
was an 11-0 victory over Hartford on March
18, 2004 thrown by Jarame Beaupre.
Delaware
improves to 9-11 (2-0 CAA) as Gaphardt
becomes 1-3 as a starter, striking out 13
batters in the contest and walking six.
David Huth (1-2) took the loss for
Hofstra, who opens conference play 0-2 and
drops to 7-13 overall.
"In that
last inning I was just concentrating on
trying to keep it in the strike zone,"
said Gaphardt, "it feels good to get the
first no-hitter of my career here
today."
Todd
Davison (Somers Point, NJ/St. Augustine)
went deep to left field in both games with
a solo shot in the third inning of the
first game and a two run blast in the
second inning of the second game as he
totaled three hits, three RBI, and four
runs scored. Adam Tsakonas (Pottstown,
PA/Boyertown Area) smacked the Hens first
grand slam of the season going deep to
left on Hofstra's Mike Xydias while
Brandon Menchaca (Wilmington, DE/Concord)
extended his hitting streak to eight games
batting .500 on the day with a double, two
runs scored, and an RBI.
Brian
Valichka (Frederick, MD/Urbana) and Bryan
Hagerich (Somerset, PA/Somerset) each had
run scoring doubles in the first inning of
the first game as Valichka stayed on pace
and chopped in three singles in the
second. Delaware laid down 20 hits overall
and struckout only four times in 14
innings at bat.
Mike
McGuire (Swarthmore, PA/Ridley) (2-3)
pitched in the first game and allowed only
one run on six hits while striking out
nine in seven innings on the mound. Jason
Rogers (Wilmington, DE/William Penn)
picked up the save as he replaced McGuire
in the eighth and allowed one run on two
hits.
For the
Pride Ryan Dunn (1-2) suffered the loss
allowing four runs on eight hits in seven
innings of work.
Hofstra
was led by Josh Stewart who hit 2-for-4
with three stolen bases and George
Athanasopoul who batted 2-for-3 with an
RBI.
Delaware
jumped out to an early lead in both games
as the Hens scored two in the first inning
of game one and six in the second inning
of game two. The Hens left 15 runners
stranded on the afternoon but recorded 14
RBI overall.
The teams
continue the three-game set on Sunday,
March 27 at Bob Hannah Stadium with game
time slated for 12 noon.
