Final Stats

PITTSBURGH, PA - The Colonials sailed by the Duquesne University Dukes, 16-4, Sunday in the final game of their Atlantic 10 three-game series. Confident Colonials' batting and pitching marked the game. GW is now 35-16 overall and 16-5 in the A-10, while the Dukes are now 24-22 for the season and 10-11 in the conference.

The Colonials started off the game with three quick runs in the top of the first, the first two on a home run by senior tri-captain Matt Krimmel (Schnecksville, PA/Parkland). Sophomore Jeff Fertitta (Baltimore, MD/Loyola Blakefield) later doubled to score senior Mike Bassett (Paramus, NJ/Paramus), who had singled. Duquesne responded in the bottom of the first with a run, scored on an RBI single by Sean Wilson. GW's largest run producing inning came in the top of the third with seven runs. After senior Travis Crowder (Manassas, VA/Osbourn) and then junior Jake Wald (Alexandria, VA/T.C. Williams) scored on wild pitches, senior Mike Bassett (Paramus, NJ/Paramus) doubled to drive in Krimmel, who had walked. Bassett scored on an RBI single by Joe Michalski (Ellicott City, MD/Mt. Hebron). Senior Tony Brown (Hockessin, DE/A.I.DuPont) followed with a three-run homer. The Colonials added another run in the top of the fourth to lead 11-1. The Dukes managed one run in the bottom of the fourth on a sacrifice fly to left field by Jason Startari. In the top of the sixth, GW scored another run and then three more in the seventh. Michalski stroked a two-RBI single to score Fertitta and junior tri-captain Chris Barry (Orchard Park, NY/Canisius), followed by an RBI single by freshman Nick Koken (Basking Ridge, NJ/Immaculata). The Dukes scored two runs in the bottom of the eighth inning on a single by Jim Onder. Wald scored the Colonials' final run in the top of the ninth on a single. Junior righthander Greg Conden (Owego, NY/Owego) earned his ninth win after pitching six innings and allowing two runs and seven hits, while striking out six.
