Baseball Loses Late Lead At Wayne State, Warriors Win In 10

In a matchup of two potential Midwest Regional tournament teams on Tuesday (April 11) at Harwell Baseball Field in Detroit, Mich., Ashland University's baseball team lost 5-4 in 10 innings to No. 12-ranked Wayne State.
 
The Eagles, 22-10 and winners of 10 of their last 13 games, had a 4-1 lead through 8½ innings on Tuesday. The Warriors, 25-4 and winners of 13 of their last 14 contests, scored three times in the bottom of the ninth inning and once in the 10th to pull out the victory.
 
NOTABLES
  • Redshirt freshman right fielder/pitcher Chris Franks launched a home run and was 3-for-5 with a double, two runs scored and two RBIs, but took the relief loss in his first collegiate pitching appearance (two hits, one run, one walk in 2/3 of an inning).
  • Fifth-year third baseman Seth Schroeder (2-for-4), sophomore first baseman Sam Witt (2-for-5, double, run scored) and sophomore shortstop Jeremiah Cangelosi (2-for-4, double, RBI, run scored) each had two hits for AU.
  • Sophomore right-hander Matt Hall, in his first start of 2023, allowed four hits, a run and two walks and struck out six in 6 1/3 frames. In three appearances in the month of April, Hall has a save and a 1.59 earned-run average.
 
UP NEXT
A key four-game series in the Great Midwest Athletic Conference North Division on Friday and Saturday (April 14-15) at Walsh. Ashland is in third place at 13-3 in the league, and the Cavaliers are in second place (15-11, 10-2).
