LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – Runs were aplenty in a game one 16-0 victory for the Bloomsburg University baseball team, but the Huskies settled for a doubleheader split at Lock Haven's Foundation Field on Sunday afternoon after a 7-5 setback in the nightcap.
 
The Huskies (10-8, 3-1 PSAC East) took three of four games over the weekend from divisional rival Lock Haven (9-7, 1-3) to win the first series of the conference season.
 
GAME ONE – Huskies 16, Lock Haven 0
 
The Huskies pounded out a season-high 19 hits en route to a dominating 16-0 victory in the first game of the day.
 
Bloomsburg wasted little time in taking control of the contest, plating three runs in the top of the first. Damin Muth (Breinigsville/Parkland) started the scoring with his two-out RBI single to center. Corey Baiada (Harleysville/LaSalle) followed with a double down the left field line to put runners at second and third before Brad Smith (Morgantown/Twin Valley) plated both runners with a two-run single to center for the 3-0 advantage.
 
Two more runs scored in the second as the Huskies did two-out damage. Brian Almand (Haddon Township, NJ/Paul VI) reached on a bunt single and moved to third on a double from Brady West (Harleysville/North Penn). Lock Haven appeared to be out of the inning, but an error in left field allowed both runners to score and stretch the Huskies lead to five.
 
From there, Bloomsburg starter Tyler Hill (Lehighton/Lehighton) (3-1) was on cruise control. Hill allowed just two hits in his six innings of work, blanking the Bald Eagles while striking out six with just one walk.
 
While Hill was putting up zeroes on the scoreboard, his offense continued tacking on. Bloomsburg opened the flood gates with an eight-run sixth highlighted by a two-run single to left by West and a triple by Smith, also plating two runs. Three more runs scored in the Bloomsburg seventh with pinch hitter Pete Edgar (Hatfield/North Penn) driving a two-run double to left center.
 
Nick Donofry (Newtown/Council Rock North) pitched a perfect seventh to close out the win, striking out one.
 
Smith went 4-for-5 with four RBIs and two runs scored to power the Huskies offensive explosion. Muth, West and Tim Ravel (Sinking Spring/Wilson) all had two hits apiece while Nick Mazza (Carbondale/Carbondale) posted two hits, three runs and an RBI.
 
GAME TWO – Lock Haven 7, Huskies 5
 
Lock Haven led early, rallied in the middle innings and then held off a late charge from the Huskies for the split.
 
The Bald Eagles grabbed a 2-0 lead in the third, scoring two unearned runs following RBI hits from Scott Zuback and Anthony Kyne.

Bloomsburg immediately fought back, taking the lead with a three-run fourth. Joey Casselberry (Eagleville/Methacton) started the rally with a one-out double to right center and moved to third on a single from Muth. Smith doubled in Casselberry and Muth scored one batter later on an RBI single from Ravel. Almand gave the Huskies their first lead with a sacrifice fly to right, scoring Ravel for a 3-2 score.
 
The Huskies' edge would be short-lived, however, as Lock Haven answered with three runs in the bottom of the inning. Jamie Eshleman tied the game with a sac fly to center and Tyson Petersheim put the hosts back on top with a run-scoring double down the left field line. Ryan Henritzy gave Lock Haven another run, knocking home Petersheim with his single to center.
 
Lock Haven added what turned out to be needed insurance in the fifth. Ryan Koch tallied an RBI double and Eshleman added a fielder's choice RBI for a 7-3 lead.
 
Bloomsburg refused to go away, though. Baiade ripped a two-out pinch hit double to score Smith who had reached on a bunt single. Eric Frain (Philadelphia/Archbishop Ryan) added an RBI single to right to pull within two, but Lock Haven reliever Cody Godfrey worked out of a bases loaded jam without any further damage.
 
It would be Bloomsburg's best chance to come back as Aaron Lidgett turned in a perfect seventh inning to lock down a win for the Bald Eagles, earning his third save of the year.
 
Smith posted a 3-for-4 line at the plate with two runs and an RBI. Ravel also had two hits in three trips to the plate with an RBI.
 
Kyle Hunter (Lehighton/Lehighton) (0-1) started for the Huskies, allowing three earned runs on six hits in 3.1 innings of work, striking out three. Eric Geedey (Elverson/Twin Valley) worked two scoreless innings out of the Huskies 'pen to keep things close in the late innings.
 
Parker Watson (2-1) picked up the win for Lock Haven, allowing five earned runs on eight hits in 5.2 innings.
 
The Huskies are back in action at home on Friday afternoon, beginning a four-game home-and-home series vs. West Chester with a doubleheader slated to start at 1 p.m.
