Game Recap: Baseball |

Brits take two from Olivet

OLIVET, Mich. – A terrific day on both sides of the ball saw the Albion College baseball team sweep The University of Olivet. Albion won the first game by an 8-0 margin before dominating in an 11-3 victory in the second contest. 

GAME ONE: Albion 8 Olivet 0 (7 innings)

The left side of the infield did a majority of the damage in game one. Third baseman Austyn Stephens and shortstop Ryker Mazey combined for seven RBI in a shutout victory over the Comets. 

Batting as the hosts in game one, the Brits quickly struck for two runs. Mazey led off with a double down the line and Evan Schuster was hit by a pitch. The two scored on a double by Stephens for the early lead. 

Albion erupted for five runs in the third, coming off just three hits and capitalizing on Comet miscues. Schuster led off with a single and Kris Stojanovski and Braeden Emery drew walks. With the bases loaded, Stephens delivered a single up the middle, driving in a pair for a 4-0 advantage. 

The Britons were able to load the bases once more in the inning and turn the lineup over to Mazey. The senior cleared the bases, ripping a double to right center for a comfortable 8-0 lead.

Drew Renner (1-0) earned the win, tossing four innings and striking out six. Sophomore Brendan Schultz finished the game, fanning four over three innings of work. 

GAME TWO: Albion 11 Olivet 3

In the 9-inning contest, the Britons picked up right where they left off. Putting up 11 runs off eight Olivet errors, Albion cruised to a game two win. Schuster drove in Albion's first run in the nightcap, before Stephens and Emery added RBIs for a 3-0 lead through three. The Britons pushed across two in the fifth, aided by Comet errors, with Stephens driving in another. 

In the top of the fifth, Albion added three runs, with Mazey driving another double to right center, bringing in Ethan Caris. A second Comet error in the frame allowed another run to score, giving Albion a comfortable 8-0 lead. 

Albion's final three runs all came via Comet errors. 

Junior Zak Kelly (1-0) threw five shutout innings, striking out a career-high seven. Ian Balint earned the save, throwing the final four. 

On Friday, the Brits head to Alma for a 4 p.m. first pitch.
