BOX SCORES

Western Michigan shortstop Eric Vondran doubles, homers [10] and drives in 5 to help the Broncos get over the top of Maryland 10-6. Terrapins catcher Ted Easterly continues his excellent season, knocking out his 21st homer and driving in 3.
Washington’s Jesse Wolff pitches 5 no-hit innings against Miami before a rain delay of over an hour ruins his chance at completing the feat. Leading 1-0 at that point, the Huskies would proceed to give up 5 runs over the subsequent two innings and eventually lose the game 5-3. On Friday, Marvin Williams pitches a two-hitter with 9 strikeouts as the Redhawks complete the sweep with a 1-0 win.
Phil Angeleri pitches 8 quality innings and EC Coverrubias walks it off with a single in a 2-1 Yale win over Illinois. The loss doesn’t cost the Illini, however, as North Conference rivals Bradley also loses 8-2 at UCLA, as do third-placed Michigan and fourth-placed Hofstra. Their 6-5 Friday loss does cost them, however, as Bradley beats UCLA 2-1 to move one game clear.
Nic Swahn pitches 8 innings of 2-hit shutout ball to give Richmond a 1-0 win over Army. The result is reversed the following day as John Ekramy pitches a 6-hit shutout in a 3-0 win for the Black Knights.
It takes a whopping 5 hours to separate Indiana and Columbia, the latter of whom eventually wins 6-5 on a Stephen Emmerich single in the top of the 17th. Their Friday game is an entirely different beast as the two sides combine for 30 hits in a 15-9 win for the Lions.
A 5-for-5 game by LF Ian Baker isn’t enough to stop Saint Louis dropping a tight one to Oregon State by a score of 6 to 5. They go on to lose the Friday contest by the same scoreline despite Nick Meraz’s 2 HR [8] / 4 RBI game.
Promising outfielder Zack Wheat doubles twice, homers [3] and brings home 4 to lead Kent State to a key 6-2 road win at Northern Colorado. The Bears earn a split with a hard-fought 5-3 Friday win.
Greg Lemmon allows just one hit and one unearned run over 8 as Dartmouth beats Wazzu 4-1 at Cheney Stadium.
Stetson’s late-season capitulation continues as they surrender an early 7-1 lead to eventually fall to Cal Poly 9-8. It is the Hatters’ sixth straight loss and greatly endangers their hopes of making the playoffs, leaving them 5 adrift of Tulane in the South Conference and in a bunch one game out of the final wild card spot. A 6-2 Friday loss only deepens their predicament.
Oklahoma’s Carl Lundgren shuts out Duke on 9 hits and fans 10 in a 3-0 road win for the Sooners. The Blue Devils square the ledger the following day, overcoming a 2 HR [9] effort by Dusty Muntz to get an 8-6 result.
A 7-hit / 8 K shutout by Matt Muche helps get NC State a 4-0 win at home over SD State.
Zach Dye strikes out a club-record 16 LSU hitters as TTU continue their late-season charge with a 6-2 home win that keeps them tied with OSU atop the Southwest, just a game ahead of Rice and A&M.
A Ryan LaRoche 5-hit shutout gives BYU their 50th win as they sneak past Houston 1-0 at Schroeder Park.
RF Matt Fuller cracks his 20th homer and drives in 5 but still his UNLV side loses 11-8 to Ole Miss.
Sean Jenson homers [14] and drives in 5 as North Carolina cruises to a 10-4 win at Vandy. Joe Garagiola mashes 2 taters [17] for the Commodores in a losing cause.
Auburn’s Dale Alexander joins AZ State duo Larry Bettencourt and John Knight at the top of the JDL HR table when he knocks out his 32nd round-tripper and has 5 RBI in a 10-5 win over Northridge. He takes sole possession of the lead with another dinger on Friday as the Sun Devils bats go completely missing in a 12-0 drubbing.
An inordinate amount of 1-0 games today. Long Beach joins the list with a win by that scoreline over Utah behind a fine 3-hit shutout by Mike Greenwood. The 49ers take another close one on Friday, winning 3-2 in 13 with a solo shot [15] by Xavier Smith the decisive blow and Paul Meloan the PotG with 5 hits including his first homer of the campaign.
Jack Stivetts blanks NM State on 5 hits and sets a new club mark with 17 as TCU whitewashes the Aggies 9-0 at Presley Askew Field. Pepperdine’s Frank Smith matches that total, also setting a new record for his school as the Waves cruise to a 7-1 victory over Alabama.

BOX SCORES

Hofstra’s Adam Smith goes the distance allowing just an unearned run on two hits with 6 K as the Dutchmen win at Kansas by 5 to 1.
Navy blanks Ball State 13-0 behind a strong performance by Philip Palmer, who allows just two hits over 7+ scoreless. Harry Stovey and Sam Vigorito each has three hits and three RBI for the Midshipmen, who close the gap to one game in the Northeast after Harvard falls at home to Purdue 3-1.
Ray Demmitt homers twice [23] and drives in 3 for Lafa in a 6-2 road win over Michigan State.
An Emmanuel Duhon 4-hit shutout leads Princeton to a 2-0 road win over Notre Dame.
Orval Overall allows just a solo homer and fans 11 over 8+ as Penn overcomes Holy Cross 4-1.
USC come back from the dead, scoring all of their runs in the bottom 8th to nip Cornell 7-6.
Two homers [13] and 3 ribbies by catcher Mike Larson and a strong CG performance by Joe Benz power South Carolina to an 8-1 home win over G-Tech.
A disastrous day in every respect for TTU as, in the course of losing their home game against LSU 5-1, they lose gun pitcher Bobby Shantz for what’s left of this season and all of next to a torn UCL.
A&M do their playoff hopes no harm with a 16-4 smashing of Georgia. CF Adam Shepherd goes deep twice [19] and knocks in 5 to lead the offence, while George Burns has 3 hits and 4 ribbies.
The game between Tulane and hosts Rice stays scoreless thru 14 before a flurry of runs sees the Green Wave emerge victorious by 4 to 2 thanks to a grand slam [16] by Jody Ognibene. Mike Reinoehl pitches 9 one-hit shutout innings for the visitors, who now look home in the South Conference with a 6-game lead over Stetson with 10 to play.
SJ State 2B MJ Gardner ties the JDL record with 8 RBI, 4 of which come in a grand slam [12], as the Spartans thrash Baylor 15-3.
Dan Hoffman hits 2 taters [13] and drives in 3 of his side’s 4 runs as OSU wins 4-3 at San Diego.
Curt Barnett pitches a 4-hitter in a 4-0 ORU road win over UCSB.
Amazingly after all that, both the home and away sides scored 224 total runs on the day.

Saturday July 22nd, 1950

BOX SCORES

Ohio scores 4 in the bottom 9th to tie their game with Kent State at 7, only to give up 2 in the top 10th and lose by that margin.
2B Rocky Kushnir doubles, homers [5] and drives in 4 to help V-Tech earn bragging rights with a 10-3 win over rivals Virginia. They cement those with a comfortable 9-2 Sunday win, as Kushnir again goes deep and Heath Bruggeman pitches a strong complete game.
Zachary Ireland pitches a 5-hit shutout with 7 strikeouts as Michigan State blanks Army 8-0.
Columbia and Navy play the longest game so far in the ACBA both in terms of duration and innings, with the Lions eventually scoring 3 in the top 20th to win 8-5 after 6 hours and 45 minutes. Navy’s disappointment is exacerbated when Harvard escapes with 2 in the 9th to steal a 5-4 home win against Cornell, walking it off on a Ben Gentry two-out single. The Midshipmen lose again Sunday by 3 to 2, with Tim Keefe dropping his first decision of the season, but Harvard also loses its game with Cornell 7-5 as LF Bert Babineau runs amok with 3 hits including a double and 4 RBI.
Yale’s Wally Berger takes his season tally to 30 with 2 dingers while driving in 4 runs as the Bulldogs beat Princeton 8-3 at Yale Field.
A 4-hitter with 13 Ks by Dupee Shaw leads Penn to a 3-0 win over Nebraska.
A heavyweight matchup between to combatants with playoff ambitions ends up a lopsided affair as Bradley knocks out Ohio State 5-0 behind a 6-hit shutout performance by Josh Jetton. Illinois’ 5-2 win at Indiana keeps the gap between the two in the North at one game, with the Illini’s David Cearley’s strong pitching key to the result. A 5-2 Sunday win for the Braves coupled with an Illinois walkoff loss puts them in the box seat once more.
Tony Gaitan shuts out Western Michigan on 3 hits in a 9-0 road win for Minnesota.
A dominant performance by Mellie Wolfgang in which he shuts out KSU on two hits and fans 6 leads Richmond to an 8-0 home win over the Wildcats.
Ball State scores all of its runs over the final two innings to steal a 6-5 win at Saint Louis. The Cardinals sweep the series with a 12-1 cakewalk on Sunday behind a three-hit CG by Eddie Baldwin.
Strong mound-work by Antonio Suarez and a homer [5] / 3 ribbie performance from catcher Victor Olmedo gets Wazzu home 6-2 in the Washington Derby against UW. The Huskies square the series the following day with a dour 5-3 victory.
Two dingers [11] and 4 ribsters by catcher Justin Johnson help get G-Tech get a 9-4 road win at NC State.
Bobby Mitchell strikes out 16 in a 3-hit CG sparkler as Alabama thumps The Citadel 11-0 at Joseph Riley Park. An 8-4 Sunday win thanks mainly to a 6-run 8th keeps the Tide moving in the right direction and within just 2 games of the Southeast-leading Georgia Bulldogs.
A ripper in the Lone Star State as TTU escapes with a lucky, vital 4-3 home win in 10 over TCU. Pinch-hitter Tailer Serrano is the walkoff hero for the Red Raiders, singling in the winning run with one out to keep T-Tech just a game behind OSU in the Southwest. A&M drop their home clash with Cal Poly 4-2 to fall a game behind their intrastate rivals. Amazingly, the Sunday game between the two Texan schools ends with exactly the same scoreline as the previous day, with Texas Tech again winning 4-3 in 10, this time on a wild pitch, and another A&M loss puts them in deep trouble standings-wise in the shadows of the post.
Sam O’Donnell allows a solitary hit over 8 scoreless as Houston wallops Long Beach 9-0 at Schroeder Park.
Claude Hendrix pitches a 4-hitter with a dozen Ks and knocks out a homer [2] to boot as Georgia easily overcomes Ole Miss 8-0.

Villanova RF Justin Hicken has two solo shots [14] as the Wildcats beat Purdue 7-1 in Plymouth.
Been a while since we had a Sunday Funday game, but Maryland and Kansas certainly provide one as they combine for 34 hits in a 14-13 win for the visiting Terrapins.

USC’s Jason Wiseman limits GWU to 4 hits as the Trojans get a 5-1 home win.
