BB: Towson Gets Past Hofstra In 10 Innings

Towson, MD - Elijah Dickerson's RBI triple in the bottom of the 10th inning gave Towson a 5-4 win over Hofstra in the finale of a three-game series at Schuerholz Park. Hofstra had forced extra innings with a run in the top of the ninth.

Hofstra's winning streak was snapped at four games as the Pride is now 18-16 overall and 9-6 in Colonial Athletic Association play. Towson is 10-29 overall and 1-11 in the CAA.

Hofstra rallied from one-run deficits three times in the game. Trailing 1-0 in the top of the third, Anthony D'Onofrio knocked in Ryan Morash, who had doubled, with a single up the middle to tie the score. Down 3-2 in the top of the sixth, Kevin Bruggeman led off the inning with a solo home run to tie the game. Then in the ninth with a runner on first and down to their final strike, Steve Harrington doubled to right with the tying run scoring on a misplay in the outfield.

In the Towson 10th, Jordan Peyton reached on an error to start the inning. Following a strikeout, Dickerson tripled to right center to drive in the winning run.

Morash finished with three hits, including the 100th of his career, and a pair of runs scored. Will Kennedy had two hits. Michael O'Hanlon (2-2) took the hard-luck loss after allowing a hit and an unearned run in one inning with three strikeouts.
