Rowan 5, Gwynedd-Mercy 3
Griffins edged by Profs

Box Score

GLASSBORO, N.J. -Gwynedd-Mercy had the bases loaded in the top of the ninth but was unable to get a run home as the Griffins fell, 5-3, to Rowan in a non-league game on Tuesday.

After an RBI groundout in the second off the bat of freshman Scott Carroll (Churchville, Pa./Council Rock South), Gwynedd saw the Profs plate two runs off of an error in the bottom of the frame for a 2-1 deficit.

Mark Mattes' (Doylestown, Pa./C.B. West) RBI double in the third tied the game at 2-2. Rowan would answer with Tim Edmeads' solo shot in the sixth to give the Profs a 3-2 lead.

Rowan added two runs in the eighth off a sacrifice fly and an error to go up 5-2.

The Griffins did cross a run in the ninth off a bases loaded walk from senior Anthony Capella (Philadelphia/Roman Catholic) and threatened for more. But with the socks full and with two outs the Profs held on as a strikeout ended the game.

Starter Sean Middleton (Perkasie, Pa./Lansdale Catholic) went six innings as the sophomore gave up three runs (one earned) on five hits while Tim McMenamin (Maple Shade, N.J./Maple Shade) had two of the Griffins' four hits on the day.

Gwynedd hosts Catholic University this Thursday in another non-conference tilt here starting at 3 p.m.
