8 of last 9 and a No Hitter Not Bad*

Entering this weekend on a 6 game win streak we aimed to continue the run in the Strike Out Cancer tournament at Seton Hall. The weekend was marked by a very impressive performance by freshman Frankie Vanderka who tossed a no hitter against NJIT on Friday. His no hitter was the first ever in Stony Brook history. He K'd 13 batters and only faced 3 over the minimum (Box Score).

After the final out of the No No

 Saturday we ended up taking game one against Fordham 13-2. Led by Tropeano on the hill and an offensive onslaught we pulled out the W. Trop threw well striking out 10 hitters over 7 innings earning the win (Box Score). 
Game 2 against Seton Hall was a tough 2-0 loss, ending our win streak at 8 games. Tyler Johnson threw very well scattering 2 runs and 6 hits over the 6.2 innings. Seton Hall's pitcher Dirocco threw a complete game, winning the pitchers duel allowing 0 runs and striking out 6 (Box Score).
Overall taking 2 of 3 on the weekend and 8 of our last 9 is a pretty solid. We continue to play really well as a unit and look to continue to do so moving forward. Our next game is this Tuesday against Fordham. Check back for more throughout the week and be sure to come out to some games.
