He also walked three times for a .692 on-base percentage.

Senior Ryan Kirman (Little Silver, N.J./Red Bank Regional) led the team with two home runs, both of which came during the 8-7 loss to Pitt-Johnstown last Sunday.
 
On the mound, sophomore Mike Warren (Garnerville, N.Y./St. Joseph Regional) had a strong first start of the season, pitching six innings of shutout baseball in the victory over IUP. He allowed five hits and struck out four while not allowing a walk.
 
As a team, Bloomsburg had a 4.68 earned run average during the three games and allowed opposing batters to hit .297 over the weekend. Meanwhile, Bloomsburg hit .282 as a team but outscored its opponents, 25-19, in the three contests.
