Baseball Knocks Off Castleton State 5-3 - Second Game Cancelled Due To Rain
HAMPTON, VA. -- Junior Jonathan Dehoux went 2-for-3 driving in three runs as the Apprentice School defeated Castleton State (Vt.) 5-3 in the first game of a scheduled doubleheader on Saturday at War Memorial Stadium.
The second game was stopped after three innings due to constant rain and failing conditions at the stadium.
After trailing 2-0 heading into the third inning the Builders erupted for three runs. Eric Polk started with a double, followed by a J.D. Drewry walk. Both runners stole a base and scored on a two-run single from Dehoux. The third run scored on the third error of the inning by Castleton State.
The Builders scored another in the fourth as Dehoux singled in Drewry who had walked and stole second base. In the sixth they scored their final run as Dawson Langhorne singled in Andrew Yonta who started the inning being hit by a pitch.
Junior Dallas Wagner earned his fourth victory of the year throwing seven innings allowing seven hits and striking out seven.
The Builders now will face NCAA Division II Virginia State University in a 2 pm single game on Tuesday at War Memorial Stadium.
