Blue Hens take sole possession of first place in conference with sweep


Andrew Salvo


Jason Vincent

HEMPSTEAD, NY -- Second baseman Andrew Salvo went 5-for-5 in the opener and Jason Vincent pitched a five-hit shutout in the nightcap to lead the University of Delaware baseball team to a doubleheader sweep of Hofstra University, 11-3 and 9-0, Saturday in Hempstead.

The wins put the Blue Hens (25-10) in sole possession of first place in the conference with a 10-4 league mark, while Hofstra (15-18), which entered the day tied for the top spot with Delaware, fell to 8-6 in the America East.

Delaware jumped on Pride starter Nelson Villalobos in the first game, scoring two unearned runs, and added five more in the second. After Kris Dufner walked, Steve Harden walked, and Reid Gorecki singled to load the bases with nobody out, Salvo singled home two runs with a base hit to right field. After a walk and a Chris Kolodzey sacrifice fly, Vince Vukovich reached on an error and John Schneider doubled home two more runs for the Hens.

UD tacked on two runs in the third inning to make the lead 9-0, which would prove to be more than enough for starter Rich McGuire. The junior righthander scattered 12 hits and allowed just three runs while striking out five and walking nobody in picking up the complete game win, his sixth victory of the season.

The Hens, who have now won six straight games, wasted no time in taking the lead in the nightcap, again scoring two runs in the opening frame. With one out Peter Maestrales, who hit a two-run home run in the first game, singled and scored on a two-run roundtripper by Kolodzey, his team-leading seventh homer of the season.

Delaware scored two more runs in the third on RBI doubles by Frank Fresconi and Schneider, and put the game away in the fifth. With one out, Vukovich doubled home Fresconi, and after Zachary Basch relieved Hofstra starter Ryan Cosentino, Harden hit a two-run home run. A Gorecki two-run single in the seventh finished the scoring.

Vincent struck out seven and did not walk a batter during his shutout, his sixth win of the year. The sophomore righthander did not allow a Hofstra player to reach third base.

Delaware and Hofstra will play another twinbill Sunday at 11 a.m. in Hempstead.
