Box Score

ALLIANCE, Ohio -- Mount Union's baseball team beat Penn State-Behrend 11-1 Sunday in a non-conference game at 23rd Street Field in Alliance.

The win evened the Purple Raiders record at 14-14 on the season while Behrend falls to 17-9 overall.

Sophomore Mike Martin (Independence/Independence) took a shutout into the eighth inning and pitched a complete game seven-hitter to get his first win of the season.

He got plenty of help from an offense that scored in each of the first five innings and belted out 17 hits for the game.

Mitchell Lake (Orwell/Grand Valley) led the charge at the plate going 4-for-5 and driving in four runs.

The first three Raiders reached in the first inning and Billy Goodall (Canfield/South Range) drove in a run on a sacrifice fly.

Goodall drove in another run on a single as part of a three-run second innning. Lake had an RBI double and Nick Piotrowski (Macedonia/Nordonia) drove in a run on a single for the other two runs in the frame as Mount Union led 4-0.

Mount Union scored two more in the third inning as Conner Koski (Highland Heights/Mayfield) brought a run home on a triple and Lake drove in another run with a single that extended the lead to 6-0.

In the fourth, Cole Carlino (Pittsburgh, Pa./Central Catholic) had a sacrifice fly RBI and Derek Sullivan (Glenshaw, Pa./Shaler Area) drove in a run as the two runs then made it 8-0.

Mount Union made it 9-0 in the fifth taking advantage of a pair of Behrend errors.

Behrend broke up the shutout in the eighth with a pair of hits to plate a run but Mount Union tacked on two more in the bottom of the inning on a two-out, two-run single from Lake for the 11-1 final.
