West Long Branch, NJ - Clay Koniencki's base hit down the right field line in the 10th inning gave Monmouth a 3-2 win over Hofstra Tuesday at MU Baseball Field.

The Hawks improved to 8-13-1 on the season while Hofstra fell to 3-15.

Monmouth opened the scoring in the second inning as Johnny Zega drew a leadoff walk and, after moving to second on an infield single, scored on Nick Campana's single through the left side.

The Pride took advantage of their first scoring chance in the fourth as Anthony D'Onofrio singled and Matt Siedem walked to start the inning. But a double play grounder threatened to thwart the rally before Rob Weissheier launched an opposite field home run to right that gave the Pride a 2-1 lead.

The lead was short-lived as Koniencki led off the bottom of the inning with a single, moved to second on passed ball, to third on a wild pitch and scored on an infield single to know the score at 2.

The score remained that way until the 10th inning as a leadoff walk to JP Walsh was followed by JD Andreessen's single to left. Zega worked a walk to load the bases and Koniencki took the first pitch he saw and lined it inside the right-field line to score Walsh and give the Hawks the walk-off win.

Regan Dombrowski (2-0), the third of three Monmouth pitchers, picked up the win after throwing two perfect innings. Jimmy Joyce (0-2), Hofstra's fifth pitcher, took the loss for the Pride after coming on to start the 10th inning.

The Pride will be back in action Friday when they begin Colonial Athletic Association play at College of Charleston.
