Blue Hens Pick Up First Win of 2003, Split Doubleheader

PETERSBURG, VA -- University of Delaware senior Steve Harden and junior Mark Michael each drove in four runs and sophomore pitcher Scott Rambo pitched a complete game, eight hitter as the Blue Hens picked up their first win of the 2003 campaign, knocking off Delaware State in non-conference baseball action Sunday afternoon, 10-3, to salvage a split in a doubleheader played at the Petersburg Sports Complex in Petersburg, VA.

Delaware State (5-11) opened the doubleheader with a 4-3 over the Blue Hens.

Rambo did not walk a batter while striking out six Hornets en route to helping Delaware snap its eight-game losing skid to start the season.

Junior Steve Van Note smacked his second home run of the day, while freshman Brian Valichka and sophomore Brock Donovan scored three runs for Delaware. Delaware State was led by Scott Martin, who drove in two runs.

In the opener, the University of Delaware took a 3-2 lead into the top of the seventh, but the Hornets rallied for two runs to take a 4-3 lead. Kevin Lowe then came in to pitch the bottom half of the inning for the Hornets and struck out two Blue Hens to pick up the save. Martin knocked in two runs for the Hornets and Matt Folke also added an RBI.

Van Note blasted a solo home run and S. Harden knocked in an RBI for the Blue Hens, while Michael added two hits and seniors Kris Dufner and Nick DeCarlo also smacked hits. Senior Jason Vincent started and pitched 4.1 innings, allowing one run on six hits, striking out 10. Chris Garrick took the loss for the Blue Hens, allowing three runs and three hits in 2.2 innings pitched.

The Blue Hens (1-8) return to action Wednesday when they host Quinnipiac at Bob Hannah Stadium. Game time is set for 2:30 p.m.
