4/10/09-  In a tight game, with little room for error, the Nyack College Baseball team allowed two unearned runs, along with a bases-loaded walk to make the difference in their home game with Wilmington University this evening, as the Warriors gave the Cougars the game, 1-3.  Warrior starting pitcher Taylor Getzke (Jr., Cairo, NY) fanned 10 batters, spreading out 6 hits over 8.0 innings of work; but it was s series of walks that allowed Wilmington to tie the game at 1-1 in the 4th inning.  A Nyack error with 2 outs in the 6th inning eventually turned into the Cougars go ahead run.

The Warriors matched Wilmington with 7 hits on the night and had more than one chance to break the game open, with runners in scoring position, but were unable to get a clutch hit.  Firstbaseman Cody Levins (Sr., McKinney, TX) led the Warriors with 3 hits, including an RBI double.  Shortstop PJ Rodriguez (Jr., Levittown, PR) and thirdbaseman Jon Mott (Jr., Bronx, NY)both had two hits for the Warriors.
