In the win over Sacred Heart, Seth Resnick snapped a 3-3 game with a single to score Peyton Grant, while Jordan Mernaugh would later smack a 2-run double to give the A’s a 6-3 lead.
Logan Terfehr was outstanding in relief, tossing six shutout innings with nine strikeouts, while allowing one walk and three hits. He faced the minimum in four of the six innings tossed.
