Stratton’s No-Hitter, Graversen’s Hitting Highlight Dominant Weekend
Joplin, Mo.–The William Penn baseball team headed down to Joplin for the weekend for a quartet of games. They squared off against Northwestern and Park on Saturday, and faced Jamestown and Saint Mary in their Sunday doubleheader.
The Statesmen kept the momentum going from Tuesday, winning all four games this weekend to extend their winning streak to six, and moving their record to 6-1 on the young season.
WPU 3 NU 0
The Statesmen received some help from the opposition in the first inning, as three errors in the infield led to all three William Penn runs for the afternoon. Jameson Hart (Jr., Sarnia, Ontario, Sports Management) was able to cash in with runners on the corners and drove a single the opposite way to drive in Alex Fisher (Jr., Sydney, Australia, Biology). After a fielder’s choice, back to back singles from Dominic Bravo (Sr., Downey, Calif., Digital Communications) and Soren Graversen (Jr., Calgary, Alberta, Human Services) pushed the lead to 3. In the bottom of the frame.
