Baseball in Buffalo


Sophmore SS Zach Shank led the offense this weekend in Buffalo collecting 8 Hits
Let us just tell you first hand Buffalo is not the ideal place to play baseball in early April.  However, there were conference games on the schedule and we were determined to win them no matter how cold it was.  After dropping the first game of the series we rebounded scoring double digit runs in game 2.  Sunday our bullpen was able to piece it together in the end and it was another game 3 win for the Red Foxes.   It was a good series win for us leaving the weekend 4-2 in conference and 19-6 overall.  

This week we head to Bucknell on Tuesday before hosting Holy Cross on Wednesday afternoon.  Mid week games allow for pitchers like us to stay back on campus and attend class.  Since neither of us is scheduled to pitch our coach will let us stay back and catch up on any school work were behind on.  Through the grueling schedule of spring, 54 games and taking a full class load things can become very busy.  Staying home for mid week games like Bucknell can be very helpful in continuing academic success.  

We continue our MAAC schedule this weekend as Rider will come to town.  Rider, the defending MAAC champions will be a tough test, one we will be ready for.  The three game set will begin at noon on Saturday.  Thank you all for continuing to follow.  We will have another video by next week checking in with one of the ball foxes.
